The Changing Face of Security

Third-party access, mobile connectivity among top op risk concerns

With every desktop computer now an information router and each USB thumb drive a potential loss point, financial services firms are approaching information and technology security in new ways.

Perimeter security is no longer enough, says Bill Munroe, VP of Verdasys, a Waltham, Mass.-based provider of information security software. As extended enterprises, growing Internet connectivity and increased mobility reshape the nature of business, Verdasys focuses on the data itself. "Our customers use our technology to make sure that data is safe as it moves through the mobile environment," he says.
