Introducing the IBM Security Framework and IBM Security Blueprint to Realize Business-Driven Security

Security is a major consideration in the way that business and information technology systems are designed, built, operated, and managed. The need to be able to integrate security into discussions with business functions and operations exists more than ever. In this IBM® Redpaper™ publication, we explore concerns that characterize security requirements of, and threats to, business and information technology (IT) systems. We identify a number of the business drivers that illustrate these concerns, including managing risk and cost, and compliance to business policies and external regulations, showing how they can be translated into frameworks to enable enterprise security.

White Paper on Cyber Security Securing Video Surveillance Devices to Close Network Vulnerabilities

whitePaper | February 19, 2020

We live in an increasingly connected world, where more and more devices and systems are networked and shared with other systems. Convenience is a main driver behind this trend, as people have come to expect the ability to connect to and control devices and systems anywhere, anytime. However, there is a downside to the unprecedented level of convenience provided by the growing number of networked devices, namely increased security risk. Because each device is an endpoint for networks, they introduce the potential to become entry points for hackers and others with malicious intents. In fact, in many of the most high-profile data breaches that have occurred recently, hackers were able to access corporate networks through POS, HVAC and other networked systems that failed to provide an adequate level of security to prevent these types of breaches.
