ABSTRACT
If data leaving organizations made a sound, most CIOs and
CISOs would need noise cancelling and noise reduction
headphones. Far too much data leaves organizations and
the situation is only getting worse. In a survey conducted
by McAfee, 55% of respondents said they use a portable
device to take confidential documents out of their business
every week.[1]
The oft-quoted observation about Chicago life, “if you
don’t like the weather, wait five minutes,” is in many ways
descriptive of the nature of information security. Issues not
envisioned today become the significant threats of
tomorrow.
