Computerworld Bulletin: The Email Security Imperative
As email attacks become more sophisticated, vendors are fighting back
with cryptography, rules-based email filtering and 'reputation'
databases, while IT managers implement strategies to manage network
defenses and improve employee awareness of the threat. The bulletin
looks at these issues and delves into specific concerns, ranging from
corporate liability to targeted attacks. There are also articles on
authentication, 'phishing' and 'pharming' attacks, firewall purchasing
tips, and more.
