Security Threats, Hype or Reality?

Compliance is now an essential requirement for organisations. But limited time and resources can mean that it is dealt with in a costly, uncoordinated way. While this may help meet short-term obligations, it's by far the most expensive way of dealing with the increasing regulatory burden.

By being more proactive in your approach you can ensure additional business benefits and lower the cost of meeting your obligations by embedding sustainable compliance into an open-standards-based data infrastructure.

Oracle solutions for organisations address key challenges that must be overcome to enable the integration of sustainable compliance into existing infrastructures.

Ensuring security: Meeting data-protection regulations is about much more than standard firewalls and anti-virus software. In particular, comprehensive backup procedures and effective identity/access management are key elements of a complete compliance programme.

Securing your Data through Strategy!

Maximising availability: Consolidating existing ‘islands’ of information from multiple systems across the organisation in a secure, centralised repository is the best way to ensure critical information is accessible at all times. Access to comprehensive operational data from a single source aids transparency and ensures compliance documentation is always based on the most accurate and up-to-date information. Ensuring operational continuity with real-time backup and additional servers working in a cluster, in case one should fail, delivers additional reliability.

Achieving transparent visibility: Creating a single-source version of the truth, i.e. putting all your data in a common repository, eliminates inconsistencies, duplications and other errors that can result from having to manually manage information streams from multiple sources. Meanwhile, the integration of business intelligence tools provides at-a-glance insight into performance based on this consolidated information.

Defining accountability: Policy-based auditing ensures that unauthorised data access generates traceable records within the data-management system. Centralised and automated identity management gives organisations an even greater level of control over how and by whom information is accessed.
