Page 2 of 2 "The
mobile internet is still in its relative infancy and it is important
that consumers do not lose confidence in mobile transactions," says
Jones. "Companies will also face new challenges to manage and secure
their corporate mobile devices to prevent employees from leaking
information, either voluntarily or involuntarily."Real world brand damage done in virtual worlds such as Second Life should not be overlooked either. If all that were not bad enough, the ISF reminds us that there is also a risk presented by a new techno-generation corporate culture driven by a younger, more technologically aware workforce. You might think that this would be a good thing, but being IT savvy and being IT security savvy are two very distinct things. The report itself is only available to ISF Members, and designed to help them take informed and pro-active actions to mitigate emerging risk. However, us mere mortals can plug into the insight offered by the real world research of the not-for-profit organisation by accessing the ISF Standard of Good Practice for Information Security. This is available free to non-members.
