You can wait for evolution or you can begin using the technologies that are available today and ride the wave toward the fully converged networks of tomorrow. Even as developers are defining the architecture, boundaries, requirements, and interfaces for a shared unified communications network of tomorrow, the current solutions provide a wide open space to grow and evolve existing business services.

Protecting information assets is a multifaceted challenge. To begin, there are many kinds of threats to information assets, ranging from external attackers to natural disasters. There are correspondingly many countermeasures and risk mitigation strategies to reduce the potential impact of these threats. Once in place, security measures must be managed and maintained-particularly with an eye to keeping up with changing security conditions. And if there were a security breach, security andv information management teams would have to respond to control the damage and recover as quickly as possible. Chapter 3 will examine several key parts of the life cycle of Internet access protection systems.

The topics will include: the nature of different client devices and their security requirements, the security needs of servers and applications, and securing network infrastructure.
