From protecting sensitive data to complying with government regulations, network administrators are tasked with securing and managing a network.
Configuresoft's Center for Policy & Compliance Director Chris Farrow will discuss best practices for securing your network through patch and configuration management at an upcoming Microsoft Executive Circle Webcast on October 19.
Patch management is a critical component toward a secure server-and-workstation network environment, but it isn't the only solution for configuration management. Since misconfigured settings account for up to 85% of security breaches, quality tools are vital to maintaining and enforcing secure configurations. Companies are also now faced with managing government regulations and ensuring their systems are in compliance with the law. Throughout the discussion Chris Farrow will address change management -- a blend of patch and configuration management -- through a system lifecycle approach, and the key tools necessary, as well as how organizations can reduce vulnerability and better ensure its overall security.
