Fortunately, SMBs can build a strong security posture using a few key products, many of which are free. In this report, Dark Reading examines the challenges that SMBs face when it comes to security and recommends the five security tools every SMB must have. Security Implications Of Big Data Strategies Sponsored by IBM To understand how to secure big data, you have to understand what it is - and what it isn't. As organizations set about building big data clusters, they're finding that many of the best practices for securing such clusters are the same used to secure any corporate data. However, there are some big differences as well. Here are some recommendations on how to alter your security strategy to accommodate big data - and when not to. A Guide to Network Vulnerability Sponsored by Lumension Building a more robust network vulnerability management program can help you identify security holes before an attacker does, as well as develop more secure systems and applications in the future. In this Dark Reading report, we examine the products and practices that will get you there. Security Enterprise Defenses With Threat Intelligence Sponsored by IBM The value of threat intelligence is based on organization-specific factors, including how threat intelligence is defined, the data the organization evaluates, the maturity of the shop in question and the use cases for the data. In this Dark Reading report, we examine how a combination of threat intelligence and security monitoring can boost enterprise defenses, and recommend how to determine if your organization is ready to tap into the model. 10 Emerging Threats Your Company May Not Know About Sponsored by HP The devil you know is better than the one you don't.

Here's how to keep your systems safe, but meanwhile, start considering: Does Java's popularity as an attack vector vs. its diminishing functionality make permanently disabling plug-ins a smart idea? Applications Monitoring For Security Professionals Sponsored by IBM When it comes to monitoring, the application space is often forgotten. The inherent variability of applications can make monitoring a challenge, but enterprises can extend existing tools to include the applications space. In this report, we make the case for the development of an applications monitoring strategy and provide recommendations for implementation that tap into existing products and processes. 2013 Wireless LAN Survey Sponsored by Symantec Given the cost of cellular access, the multiplying number of mobile devices and the imminent ratification of the superfast 802.11ac specification, we decided to survey InformationWeek readers about their wireless LANs today and plans for the future. Among the 419 respondents to our InformationWeek 2013 Wireless LAN Survey, 89% use 802.11n technologies as a network access method for end users, up from 76% in September 2010.
