The continuing shift to the Internet for widespread information access, e-commerce and more has made business and government assets inviting targets.  Most alarming are the near-daily attacks that place all our personal, corporate and private business information at risk to appropriation and misuse.

There are ongoing serious breaches of what was previously thought to be totally-secured electronic information:

• Orchestrated web server attacks, site breaches, information theft;
• Appropriation of personal credit card information from e-commerce shopping sites;
• The hacking and defacing of web sites;
• Repeated denial-of-service attacks that disrupt e-commerce for days, even weeks;
• Malicious virus proliferation and destruction of entire databases;
• The penetration of sensitive government sites, appropriation of highly sensitive information;
• Loss or exposure of valuable information due to insider expropriation. 

Our electronic world is most assuredly a fundamentally insecure space in which unauthorized individuals can access every intimate detail of our lives.  What is needed is a comprehensive, effective data security foundation such as provided by TriStrata, to protect sensitive information whether in storage or transit.
