New eBook: 5 Keys to Secure Enterprise Messaging

Post Syndicated from Anne Grahn original https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/new-ebook-5-keys-to-secure-enterprise-messaging/

AWS is excited to announce a new eBook, 5 Keys to Secure Enterprise Messaging. The new eBook includes best practices for addressing the security and compliance risks associated with messaging apps.

An estimated 3.09 billion mobile phone users access messaging apps to communicate, and this figure is projected to grow to 3.51 billion users in 2025.

Legal and regulatory requirements for data protection, privacy, and data retention have made protecting business communications a priority for organizations across the globe. Although consumer messaging apps are convenient and support real-time communication with colleagues, customers, and partners, they often lack the robust security and administrative controls many businesses require.

The eBook details five keys to secure enterprise messaging that balance people, process, and technology.

We encourage you to read the eBook, and learn about:

  • Establishing messaging policies and guidelines that are effective for your workforce
  • Training employees to use messaging apps in a way that doesn’t increase organizational risk
  • Building a security-first culture
  • Using true end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to secure communications
  • Retaining data to help meet requirements, without exposing it to outside parties

New ebook: CJ Moses’ Security Predictions in 2023 and Beyond

Post Syndicated from CJ Moses original https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/new-ebook-cj-moses-security-predictions-in-2023-and-beyond/

As we head into 2023, it’s time to think about lessons from this year and incorporate them into planning for the next year and beyond. At AWS, we continually learn from our customers, who influence the best practices that we share and the security services that we offer.

We heard that you’re looking for more prescriptive guidance, patterns, and trends that AWS Security is seeing in the industry, so I’m happy to share an ebook that I recently authored called Security Predictions in 2023 and Beyond. In this ebook, you’ll learn about what we think is next for the security industry and some high-level pointers on how you can stay ahead.

The last few years has brought rapid acceleration of digital transformation in a short time and forced organizations to manage disruptions to their business, such as the impact of remote work. As security and risk management leaders handle the recovery and renewal phases from the past two years, they must consider forward-looking strategic planning assumptions when allocating budget, selecting services, and prioritizing employee effort. We are now at an interesting point in time where it will take the right mix of technology and humans to shape the future of cybersecurity.

I encourage you to read through the ebook and consider how these predictions could influence strategic planning for your security program.
