Corporate Security
Corporate security is a top concern for today’s businesses. Disguised by the Internet, criminals would like nothing better than
to profit from your business’ data or disrupt your service delivery. They lurk in the shadows while your corporate security team races
to improve upon their security initiatives, keeping the company, employees and customers safe. Despite all of the planning, attacks can still happen.
When they do, the corporate security team’s response must be measured, communicated and documented.
In this section of OTRSmag, our internal security expert Jens Bothe leads the conversation. With help from guest bloggers, he examines
the corporate security landscape and ponders tomorrow’s security trends/needs. As they share tactical advice, like implementing structured workflows,
and theoretical dialogue, such as the responsibility cloud service providers assume on behalf of their customers,
we invite you to join the OTRS security team in examining the best ways to protect your business from modern threats.
