Many businesses rely on IT security technologies to protect their sensitive information, but just having technical controls like firewalls, intrusion detection, anti-virus, etc isn’t a total solution for IT security.Even with all these perimeter based security, there is no guarantee of total IT security there is never a 100% and never will be.

Business executives (CIO, CISO) should be aware that having comprehensive security measures SHOULD INCLUDE protecting your crown jewels (Data – IP, PII, Vendor, Customer, HR, Sales & Distribution, Financials, Procurement etc) that are stored within your ERP systems.
