What IT Professionals can learn from Al Qaeda
Four IT Security Lessons from Bin Laden?s Downfall (White Paper)
(PresseBox) - On May 2, 2011, an elite team of U.S. Navy SEAL commandos raided a residential compound in Pakistan and killed the world?s most wanted terrorist, Osama bin Laden.
The U.S. forces also discovered an extensive cache of documents and information technology storing some of the inner secrets of bin Laden?s Al Qaeda organisation.
The killing of bin Laden was a major military victory for the U.S. and its allies, but perhaps even more important was the discovery of this massive amount of secret information. The U.S. military planners expected to find important information as part of the mission: the Navy SEALs were specially equipped with document bags to confiscate any laptops, hard drives, CDs, thumb drives and other electronic storage media.
This paper will discuss the lessons of the Bin Laden IT cache, and recommendations for how organisations can better manage their information and storage media to protect themselves from a data breach.
