NET-SEC Tool



IT departments everywhere are being pushed harder to deliver business critical applications typically with few resources. The architecture of these applications is not getting any simpler and the dependency on moving data is greater then ever.

On top of the demands made by management and users, many IT departments have to balance these demands against legislated and industry assigned standards. One standard currently front of mind for many IT administrators and managers is the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS).

You may not accept credit cards and therefore PCI-DSS does not apply, these are all good ideas and should not to be discounted.

For IT professionals responsible for the network and/or security of the organization I have provided this document as a tool which provides focus points for thinking about your network and security.

This tool was the source for a presentation given at the July 2009 TLOMA TECH-SIG. Richard Danielli, president of eSubnet presented to over 20 Toronto area IT managers within the legal sector. Mr Danielli's speech is available HERE
