Erin,
My sales engineer forwarded the following article to review this morning. It discusses a security breach that occurred at ChoicePoint, the fines and civil penalties that were incurred as well as consumer compensation that was awarded. It all started with a security monitoring tool that was disabled, databases were breached, customer information was stolen. And the entire situation could have been avoided if logs were regularly reviewed.
I thought you may find this to be an interesting article to review. I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t provide you with security news and reviews.
Thanks
Rob
Okay… really…… the last sentence… I am very much tempted to write him back and give him a job description. Something to outline what I expect to see in regards to news and reviews on a daily basis(for example…. something a little more up to date). I mean… it is his job, right?
