Robert Grapes, Chief Technologist of Cloakware, Vienna, Va., posted these tips at Business Week’s, Today’s Tip:
1. Know who has access to privileged information. Assess who has access to what data so you can understand and manage access as appropriate.
2. Apply appropriate policies to protect sensitive information. Create an actionable plan and put it into place, applying privileged passwords and access management controls throughout each level of information.
3. Update security and access credentials regularly to monitor and maintain control. Implement a regimented program to automatically update access management and passwords so you can ensure that the right people have the right amount of control over critical information.
