There are several fundamental types of issues which plague data protection, and there are ways to mitigate these risks. i.) Often, due to lack of resources, an organization may have limited or non-existent security architecture in place. Mitigation involves implementing even minimal security, in conjunction with bringing in consulting expertise to help review, suggest, and implement changes. ii.) Connected to the problem of a lack of resources, many organizations fail to keep software properly updated/patched, creating exploitable vulnerabilities. Mitigation requires a robust patch management regimen. iii.) The installation of malicious software via phishing attacks and infected webpages is a common problem. Mitigation is achieved via enterprise-level email security software and the use of firewalls and antivirus software...
