  Research Brief: Is Data Destruction a Compelling Use Case for Self-Encrypting Drives?

  To protect sensitive data, many storage vendors now offer encryption capabilities with their enterprise-class systems. In spite of increasing privacy legislation and an avalanche of publicly-disclosed data breaches, most large organizations believe their enterprise storage systems are relatively well-protected and thus continue to forego encryption. Some storage vendors are now proposing self-encrypting drives for another use case: data destruction. By deleting encryption keys, these vendors believe they can help enterprises automate data destruction processes. In theory, this is true—but ESG research demonstrates that, though key deletion for data destruction may have some niche market appeal, it is not a “killer app” for storage encryption across the broad enterprise market.

  Research Brief: Laptop Encryption Steps into the Limelight

  While laptop computers and other mobile devices offer significant benefits in terms of convenience and employee productivity, the loss or theft of a mobile system containing confidential information continues to be an all-too-real nightmare for security organizations. With confidential data increasingly distributed across disparate users and devices, IT departments must ensure that mobile computing devices, such as laptops, are protected by a comprehensive security strategy that includes full-disk and other encryption technologies.

  Research Brief: The “Outside-In” Confidential Data Security Model

  Confidential data resides everywhere—from locked-down data centers to mobile devices—and is increasingly accessed by a wide range of constituents—from employees to contractors and business partners. How can CIOs and CISOs possibly secure confidential data when it is in a constant state of motion? The ESG “Outside-In” data security model seeks to put confidential data security in context by anchoring data security to risk metrics, categorizing risk zones, and recommending security controls. When properly and consistently applied, ESG believes that the “Outside-In” security model can help organizations improve confidential data security while making this data more productive for global network-based business processes.

  Research Brief: The Impact of VDI on Network Infrastructure

  The positive impact that server virtualization has had on computing infrastructures has led IT staffs to look for ways to extend these benefits to other areas of their operating environments. One such opportunity involves the centralization of desktop computing via VDI (virtual desktop infrastructure) technology. While centrally executing and managing desktop images offers many benefits to both IT and end-users, the potential impact on the network and other underlying data center infrastructure should not be overlooked.

  Business Enablement Demands Tight Identity and Security Integration

  Identity management and security were once thought of as independent IT activities but this is rapidly changing. Why? New business processes, web-based applications, external collaboration, and user mobility are driving tight integration between traditional identity management activities like user provisioning and authentication with security requirements like malware detection, information assurance, and auditing. Many technology vendors offer products in one or both of these areas but Microsoft stands out for its tight integration between identity, security, and its existing broad base Windows infrastructure.
