Adrian,I recently submitted a SANS GCIA Gold paper on implementing the SANS Top 20 Security Controls in a small business. I was inspired by the success of the US Department of State. My method was to lean into existing security and admin tools and not spend any extra money. I believe it turned out nicely. I am about half way through a series of blog posts on this work at www.securityeverafter.com.
Hope it helps, Russell Eubanks On Aug 20, 2011, at 10:06 AM, Adrian Crenshaw wrote:
A little while back Joe Hollingsworth and I were interviewed for an article in the Southern Indiana Business Source. The local Kiwanis club asked for a 25 min talk on the subject of the article, so we came up with this mandate: Given only 25 minutes, tell us what a small business could do to help their security posture. Well, it ended up being almost 40min and we did not get through all of the slides. The live video camera failed, so the audio in this video is what the laptop recorded.http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=videos/security-tips-for-the-small-business-from-70000-feetI'd like some suggestions in case we do the talk again. I think I'd like to expand on:1. Who to use as a backup provider, or good recommendations for doing it yourself.2. 3rd party patch management solution recommendations. Ideas?
