Topic Abstract
Mobile devices are fast arriving and handling greater levels of sensitive information on
a escalating scale. The agility and fast pace of the mobile environment places many
new challenges on organisations to protect the confidentiality and integrity of both their
data and the data of their customers. In a less agile environment the implementation
of security policies and procedures in a large enterprise is more stable and long lasting.
With the increasing number of technology components, diversity of IT platforms and
distributed array of data storage locations, some of which is moving to an environment
not directly controlled by an organisation or its IT staff, the ability to satisfactorily apply
security controls in a risk managed manner needs to similarly adopt. This presentation
will look at some of the challenges faced by a large organisation in protecting its
sensitive data as mobile platforms continue to proliferate, and the steps being
undertaken to overcome these challenges.
