Cyber Security For Business

Need for Security

The Security investigation underlines the organization’s responsibility to develop and maintain a successful information security program that is to be executed in all levels of management  An Organization must understand that securing an asset is a continuous process rather than an event.

Two Types of Needs

There are two types of needs in securing an asset :

• Business Need,
• Technology Need.

Any organization will have confusion in deciding which of the above need should be compromised.  Business needs should always be given higher priority.  Compromising business needs for the sake of security may hinder the development of the organization. 

Business Need

The need for securing the information asset of an organization are listed below : 

• Protects the organization’s ability to function,


• Enables the safe operation of applications implemented on the organization’s IT Systems.


• Protects the data the organization collects and users.


• Safeguards the technology assets in use at the organization.
  
  
  

Protecting Data

• The most valu8able and non recoverable asset in an organization is data.


• It is the most valuable asset and the most difficult one to secure.


• Organization must ensure proper security to both data in motion and data in rest.


• Without data, an organization loses its record of transactions and / or its ability to deliver value to its customers.


• An effective information security program is essential to the protection of the integrity and value of the organization’s data.


• Loss of confidential data may lead to great disasters which would pave way to framing of new security policy from the scratch.


• Developing a new security policy after data loss would consume more resources.

Safeguarding Technology Assets

• Technology assets are costly and its installation is also very expensive.


• Organizations must have security infrastructure services based on the size and scope of the enterprise and the technologies they use.


• Additional security services may have to be provided if needed.


• More robust solutions may be needed to replace the out dated security programs.


• PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) is one among the
  security measure that safeguards the data.

Matterhorn Tourist Place

At 14770 feet, Mt. Matterhorn is not the tallest peak of Europe, but is the most impressive. It inspired many painters, poets and writers with its majesty.  It is half in Italy and half in Switzerland in the Peninine Alps. The mountain tapers like a rough amethyst as if carved out of quartz by some gigantic axe. From the Italian side, with its imposing terraced walls, it is a considerably great challenge. From the Swiss side it tooks like an isolated peak but it is actually the butt end of a ridge and easier for climbing. 

John Ruskin, the famous writer lavishly describes it as "An alpine tower hewn by the axe of God". He
"paid tribute and further said" in those firm grey bastions of the cervin, which he said was thrust up into the great wall of firmament above all inviolable.

Today it stands at a height of 12598 feet, but this keeps increasing beacuse of the deposits after an eruption and decreases because of wind and rain. 135 eruptions have been recorded so far. A continuous stream of smoke and a red glow in the sky a top the mountain, remind people that it is alive and only resting.

A road 86 miles long encircles the volcano. Mini buses take the tourists right upto the crater. the view into the crater is awesone and scary with red hot lava shooting out, loud rumblings, rocks around cracking. It covers 500 square miles and is one of the most impressive natural wonder of the world.
