Whitepapers
Lessons Learned from The Top 10 Breaches of 2009 - Abbreviated
In this White Paper we take a look at the 10 largest breaches of 2009 and look for some lessons that we can use to help make our information security programs better. This White Paper is 19 pages long, and is somewhat abbreviated (believe it or not!). The extended version will be published soon.

The Five W's of Information Security
This white paper is written to provide you, the reader with a basic understanding of information security concepts. The concepts presented here are based on a combination of industry best practices and the experience we have gained while helping dozens of companies secure their sensitive information. We use plain English wherever possible.

Characteristics of Effective Information Security Programs
FRSecure has assessed the effectiveness of information security programs for over a dozen companies thus far in 2009. We have assessed the effectiveness of programs in companies as small as 20 employees and as large as 45,000 employees. We have worked with companies ranging from air couriers to banks to software developers. Through our engagements and past experiences, we have noticed some things that are characteristic of well-run and effective information security programs.

10 Disaster Recovery Best Practices
Every company has a disaster recovery plan, right? I wish this were so, but the reality is that many companies do not have disaster recovery plans. Even many of the companies that do have disaster recovery plans fail to update and/or test them regularly. This white paper is intended to help people responsible for disaster recovery planning understand some of (not all of) the best practices when it comes to disaster recovery planning. Some of the information in this white paper is basic, but so are many of the critical practices involved in disaster recovery planning. Why complicate things if the basics are missing?

The information you will find in this white paper is largely based upon firsthand experience gained from working with many of our client companies. We do not disclose our client names as a matter of policy. This white paper is written to communicate ten best practices and is not intended to be a step-by-step guide.
