Importance of pro-active protection
It goes without saying that protecting your intellectual property from
theft is not only fundamental to the success of your business,
it is the key to your survival.
Yet, we cannot silently ignore the fact that 85% of intellectual property thefts
take place from the inside!
In last three years, only $2,000 on average
were fined, recovered or granted by the courts as a result of convictions in
intellectual property cases. In each of theses case, the actual cost to the company
exceeded $70,000-- U.S. Bureau of Justice, 2005
Recovery, damage control, insurance or retribution, are neither
achievable nor sufficient measures against the loss of your intellectual property.
You must take pro-active steps to protect your assets!
Three things you require to protect your intellectual assets.
Protection of information is a function of security of your information
technology systems. Understanding and taking ownership of IT security is the key
to protecting your business and its intellectual assets.
To protect intellectual property from insider theft you must:
- Protect against unauthorised users using a strong business-wide
identity management system.
- Audit all activity of authorised users pertaining
to sensitive files, documents and digital content using a comprehensive
user-centric audit system.
- Control the activities of authorised users,
and limit their ability to share information with others using
multi-level security,
role-based access control and data
compartmentalization.
