Today, the operation and management of an enterprise is becoming
increasingly dependent on electronic information flow. An
accompanying concern becomes the security of the communication
infrastructure and the security of the data itself.
The MDS entraNET is capable of dealing with many common security
issues.
Table 1-2 profiles security risks and how the MDS entraNET
provides a solution for minimizing vulnerability.
