Happy Halloween. As I sit here thinking about tonight's activities with the kids, I could not help but think about Content Security - what can I say I am a real content geek I guess. But it is true - the volume of content and the ease with which it can now be shared/accessed has created a real trick-or-treat dilemma for virtually every organization. On one hand, our ability to collaborate and innovate as teams, to share our knowledge and build networks far beyond the physical boundaries of our offices is unprecedented and powerful. There's the treat. But on the other hand, this same volume and ease of sharing has put the organization at great risk. Careful or you may get tricked. Whether through malicious intent, or accident, it is far too easy today to put the organization at great risk by mismanaging content.
Content security is no longer an issue for the IT department alone. It is no longer a black and white issue - keep the "wrong" people out and then trust the "insiders" to do the right thing. Content security is now an issue for virtually every business executive, knowledge worker and IT professional alike.
So if you find yourself faced with this dilemma, join us tomorrow when we take a deep look at positioning content security as both an enabler of innovation and guardian of content. The webinar will include insights into our recently published Market IQ.

Do you want a good Halloween scare for today? Consider this, among the 600 organizations we polled,43% said they did not know if their content had been inappropriately accessed in last 2 years. AHHH - what is scarier then the darkness of the unknown. (Similar findings were uncovered regarding malicious and accidental inappropriate deletion of content.) I hope to see you at the webinar.
