SharePoint Security Challenge #3: Respond to Suspicious Activity
"96% of breaches were avoidable through simple or intermediate controls." - Verizon Data Breach Report 2011
SharePoint Security Gap:
Native SharePoint activity auditing does not provide the ability to automatically analyze access activity and respond with an alert or block.
The Play:
Use a policy framework to build rules across SharePoint's Web, file, and database components to identify suspicious behavior and complement native access controls.
The Advantage:
- Monitor, control, and respond to suspicious activity in real time.
- Balance the need for trust and openness with security concerns.
