CISO and there's more...

In light of today's business environment, it has become critical to align security management with business objectives. Staying current with the broad spectrum of complex threats, keeping pace and staying motivated with the manual task makes it challenging.
Recommended best practices include:

• Turn off ad remove services that are not needed. If malicious code or some other threat exploits one or more network service, disable or block access to those services until a patch is applied.
• Always keep patch levels up to date, especially on computers that host public services and are accessible through the firewall, such as HTTP, FTP, mail and DNS services.
• Consider implementing network compliance solutions that will help keep infected mobile users out of the network (and disinfect them before rejoining the network).
