Information Security Essentials for IT Managers
Protecting Mission-Critical Systems
Albert Caballero, Terremark Worldwide, Inc.
Information security involves the protection of organizational assets from the disruption of business operations, modification of sensitive data, or disclosure of proprietary information. The protection of this data is usually described as maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA) of the organization’s assets, operations, and information.
