IBM tackles 'shadow IT' with a new cloud security tool for enterprises

If there's one thing that can strike terror into a CIO's heart, it's the
security implications of the cloud. If there's another, it's the "bring your
own" technology trend. Combine the two, and you've got the motivation behind
IBM's new Cloud Security Enforcer.

IDG Contributor Network: Data loss by the drip

While the world is focused on news about major data breaches, we are overlooking
the small, daily loss of key information such as passwords and confidential
attachments. This data loss happens a bit at a time, much like water is lost by
a slowly dripping faucet. Our businesses may depend on us learning to recognize
this loss, and to combat it.

Security experts: Cyber sharing isn't enough

Most experts at a Johns Hopkins University conference on cyber threat sharing
