Report on Cyber Crime Outlines Security Cycle to Help Organisations 
 
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Jul 24, 2014) - A new report published
by Computacenter is outlining the security cycle in order to help tackle and
prevent cyber crime amongst organisations. 
 
To ensure improvement efforts are focused on the right areas, organisations
must first understand where they are and where they want to be with their
security position. They need to assess. They need to audit. And they need to
act. 
 
The global annual loss from cyber crime is roughly $300bn, according to the
Center for Strategic and International Studies. With these relentless cyber
threats emerging, organisations must grasp the true end-to-end visibility of
the security cycle. 
 
With security no longer constrained by any perimeter, these activities must
encompass a wide range of risks across a wide range of end-points. Given such
complexity, it's not surprising that a quarter of organisations have never
carried out any form of security risk assessment. 
 
Security assessments should span each stage of the attack cycle -- before,
during and after -- and pinpoint areas for improvement. Working with an
external partner will not only simplify but also accelerate the assessment
process -- and the closing of any gaps.
