If your organization
is like many others, enterprise security is nothing more than an add-on to
implementation projects and deployed systems. But as massive data breaches
occur across the globe, it’s time to give security a closer look.
In addition to trying to avoid security breaches that damage
the business, as well as reputations, organizations face an emerging set of national
and international security regulations and policies covering data privacy and
security.
For example, the European Union must now deal with the General Data
Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is intended to strengthen data protection
and simplify the regulatory environment for international business.
GDPR takes
effect in May, 2018 and is very serious, as non-compliance can lead to huge fines.
Taking the time to incorporate security into the enterprise
architecture is vital - and it’s never too late to start.
We invite you to view
an Oracle University recorded webinar
that will prepare you to deal with this sensitive area.
Security in the Age of Mega
Breaches
This high-level overview will help you understand the
security risks you're facing:
- Learn about Oracle products and
available training to support the centralized management and
enforcement of security policy.
- See why your greatest threat might not
be an external hacker, but an inside professional with access to your data.
- Hear about some of the best-known security breaches in recent history,
including security breaches at Kaspersky Lab (internal espionage) and Yahoo!
(massive data breach).
The free webinar is
presented by Martin Schlichenmayer, Principal Sales Consultant at Oracle
University EMEA, who has been in the IT business since 1986, when he started
implementing and developing front and back end databases and engineering
data warehouses.
Martin's expertise includes database administration,
PeopleSoft and Middleware, with particular emphasis on the SOA Suite.
His in-depth knowledge
of Oracle technologies, together with many years instructing and consulting in
the IT business, currently helps customers build comprehensive
organizational training plans.
Some interesting security statistics:
- 50% of malware propagation is because of
misconfiguration, which can be addressed through training.
- 76% of organizations have end users with lost,
stolen or weak passwords.
- From 2007 to 2013, hacking increased by 1600%.
The database experiences 52% of attacks, while the network experiences 34%; however, organizations allocate just 15% of security resources to protect
the database, while 67% of resources go toward securing the network.
