"Image driving down the highway utilizing the newly purchased Garmin GPS device to navigate the trip and one begins to ponder whether big brother (any government entity) is watching. The answer is that any well-informed company or agency can track one's movements whether it is buying an ice cream at the corner store or sipping on a cappuccino at the local café. One may ask how this is possible for this trail to happen. Just follow the data trail of profiling (Rainier, 2010, 3.1.) Ever wonder why one receives emailed electronic coupons or discovers such coupons in one's bag of groceries for routinely purchased food items, profiling allows companies to track and support consumer's trends (Rainier, 2010, 3.1.) With all advancements in today's technology, there are increased threats to information security.
Threats to information in today's advance Information Technology society comes in the forms of employees connecting to suspect outer organizational networks, the forgotten IPad in the city taxi that holds company blueprints, low-level hackers, and the exploitation of system vulnerabilities due to unsafe security protocols (Rainer, 2010, 3.2.) Nevertheless, what measures can one take against these threats? The answer is that companies or agencies will have to invest in controls (both physical and access), physical referring to barriers, access utilizing an authentication/authorization method (i.e. biometrics, smart cards etc.) which will determine the user's level of access (Rainier, 2010, 3.3). Other safeguards are the establishment of firewalls or intrusion detection devices to the network and loss of potential damaging data (3.3).
The following is an excerpt from a Department of Justice (DOJ) IT Security Policy document, namely Chapter 2, Issue - Specific Security Polices. The DOJ article (Item 10), Sensitive and Personally Identifiable Information (PII), identified physical controls for employees regarding mobile devices (i.e. laptops and devices). Key points noted were: Limit information signature, need-to-know access, maintain sensitive documentation in secure holdings, the recording/tracking of extrapolated database data, and the immediate notification to the DOJ Readiness teams concerning any incident involving loss, theft, or potential data vulnerability.
