Technology enthusiast and project manager advises on how to protect email and mobile devices
21 November 2015 – Dallas, Texas, USA – “Security Essentials for Project Managers: Protecting Email and Mobile Devices” is a paper by Neil Farquharson that was originally presented at the 9th UT Dallas Project Management Symposium in August. It was republished in the November edition of the PM World Journal and added to the PM World Library this month.
According to the author’s introduction, “Cyber-crime and espionage attacks your employers’ or clients’ reputation, profitability and future. Still somewhat quaintly referred to as ‘hacking,’ these threats are now foremost in corporate strategic thinking… This paper seeks to identify vulnerabilities for corporate data loss and finds that data in transit across the public Internet and via mobile devices are the main mediums for data interceptions. It also highlights process weaknesses and human behaviors that expose these vulnerabilities.”
