(PRWEB) September 22, 2006 -- As service providers and their customers face new security requirements due to regulations such as HIPPA and Sarbanes-Oxley; as more valuable customer data, financial information and high-value content becomes digitized and stored online; and as the move to IP and standards-based systems opens the door to more security breaches, the industry is waking up to the growing importance of security.

"The number and variety of attacks affecting most organizations is increasing at an alarming rate, and the technologies needed to effectively combat all of the possible attacks are simply too difficult for many organizations to deploy themselves," says Jeff Wilson, principal analyst for VPNs and security at Infonetics Research, in his most recent study. "In particular, attacks aimed at specific types of content (from business applications like Oracle and SAP to instant messenger traffic) are wreaking havoc on organizations -- and not just big companies; companies of all sizes are being affected."
