Security on the Cheap: Creating a Cost-Effective Information Security Program

Thursday, May 17, 2012 | 10:45AM–11:45AM | White River Ballroom C
Session Type: Professional Development
Security as presented by vendors boils down to buying the right box or software. We'll take the point of view that effective security can be created using homegrown and open-source solutions in combination with policies and out-of-the-box thinking. Learn how we built our security program at Columbia University from scratch in a very complicated and decentralized environment. We'll address both institutions that are looking to build their security program and those with fully functioning programs that are seeking to reduce cost or improve results.
