April 08, 2008 - Milwaukee, WI - Active Communications International (ACI) announced the Corporate Network Security Conference scheduled for June 19 - 20, 2008 in Washington, D.C.
Nearly 672 electronic records containing confidential information are compromised every 5 minutes. These compromises are caused by internet hackers as well as internal errors. Some exposure of data is accidental, caused by administrative errors, insider abuse, stolen equipment and the like. Other times it comes from cyber thieves or disgruntled employees.
Although immediate access to global networks makes it easier to conduct business, it also makes sensitive information more vulnerable to cyber thieves. Today’s hackers are skillful and stealthy, able to identify and exploit the slightest network vulnerability to break and enter, steal valuable data, and leave without a trace. As a result, security experts speculate that government agencies and enterprise businesses alike will have to implement more comprehensive and multifaceted security strategies to keep up with the perpetrators and further protect their sensitive data.
