Press Release Body = Toronto, February, 2006 /PR/ Informatica Security and InformationSecurityCanada.com have launched www.SecurityAudits.ca, a unique portal that allows organizations to choose from a number of exclusive security reviews and assessments. The site offers a large selection of such solutions aimed at the corporate and government markets. Each one, based on the company's acclaimed FlexSecure Verify audit methodology, relies strongly on rigorous industry standards and best practices.
Claudiu Popa, Informatica's president and Chief Security Officer took the opportunity to announce the introduction of nine types of security assessments that address critical market demand such as data retention and destruction, privacy and confidentiality reviews, Web site and application security, audit preparation and compliance solutions: "after years of client support and continuous improvement for our audit process, I am pleased to introduce the highest quality security assessments and audit process available anywhere in Canada".
He added: "our solutions are designed to precisely meet the needs of the marketplace and are delivered in accordance with the highest standards of due diligence and care. Unlike some of the automated services available today which we believe create a dangerous situation for organizations that have come to rely on them, our solutions are executed by experienced, certified professionals using advanced tools and skills to deliver value month after month, year after year. Organizations that choose to outsource security assessments and management should never place their company at greater risk by assuming that automated scanning implies security assurance".
All www.SecurityAudits.ca solutions are optionally recurring professional engagements that provide long term, current visibility into corporate security operations and exposures. Additionally, every engagement includes a critically important knowledge transfer component that allows each client to learn about risk and how to mitigate it in the future.
