Virtualization, cloud computing, mobile technologies, and the emergence of a new class of Big Data applications have dramatically altered how organizations create, deliver, and manage information. However, these new gains in cost efficiency, operational agility and flexibility have also opened the door to new forms of risk. IT and security teams are being hindered from maintaining direct control over IT resources—at a time when organizations have near-total reliance on digital assets and operate within an increasingly complex landscape of compliance requirements and security threats.

To help organizations re-establish deeper visibility into and tighter control over their digital assets, EMC Consulting has developed five new Security and Risk Management Advisory Services:

* Trusted Cloud Advisory Services build trust in an organization’s next-generation IT architecture. These services leverage deep experience in identity, information, and infrastructure security, providing visibility into and control of an organization’s private and public cloud environments.

* Information Governance Advisory Services enable the development of a cohesive approach to information governance. Organizations better understand where information lives, how it’s delivered and accessed, and how it’s used and governed in order to facilitate a safe, efficient stewardship of high-value information.

* Governance, Risk, and Compliance Advisory Services identify, analyze, manage, and mitigate risks. These services bring governance and visibility to risk management, providing confidence that information is secure, compliant with regulations, and meets specific business requirements.

* Fraud and Identity Management Advisory Services help organizations cope with a complex, evolving threat landscape. Clients can protect sensitive information while allowing trusted identities to freely, securely interact with online systems in ways that increase efficiency, improve customer satisfaction, and control costs. Business agility is balanced with the appropriate levels of security and authentication.

* Mobile Device Security Advisory Services allow organizations to extend their current enterprise security policies and controls to help mitigate the rapidly escalating risks associated with providing mobile device access to sensitive data and resources.

The new EMC Security and Risk Management services portfolio extends the security offerings of EMC Consulting and RSA, which are backed by hundreds of certified security professionals with extensive governance, risk, compliance, and security management experience. The proven security track record of EMC Consulting and RSA help enterprises transition from reactive security methods to a proactive security approach.

“Security culpability is no longer the responsibility of just the CISO. The demand for broadened information access and an increasingly interconnected mobile workforce is exposing sensitive corporate data to new forms of risk and leakage. EMC’s new Security and Risk Management Services are the ideal remedy to lock down access control and identify IT infrastructure security gaps before they become problematic or worse, irrevocably damaging.”
