 Security as a Service: 6 Pros & Cons
Businesspeople are concerned about the rising number and severity of IT security risks not just because they are dangerous but because of their business impacts.

Add to those the time, money, and expertise needed to manage barely adequate defenses, and IT security looks like an expensive burden for all but the largest businesses. This paper looks at the business issues in SaaS: the value it unlocks, the costs -- direct and indirect -- it avoids, and the corollary benefits like efficiency and agility it supports.

Although distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks have become a mainstay of hackers' arsenals, their profile has changed considerably in the past year or so, making them an even greater threat to companies that conduct business online or have significant investments in their online brand and reputation. DDoS attacks are larger, stealthier, more targeted, and more sophisticated than ever.
