a challenge. Students bring their computers with them
when they return to campus, often bringing along potential
problems that may affect the network. Challenges include
configuration problems, non-compliant software applications,
and virus-related issues.

As enterprise networks become more
dispersed, administrators are challenged with protecting
network integrity while providing access anytime, anywhere.
Organizations have invested heavily in their networks
to prevent unauthorized access to data, but as business
expands to include remote locations, home offices, hot
spots in coffee shops, hotels, and other locations, the
problem becomes more complicated.

strictly protect sensitive patient data, research, and
other highly confidential material. Tightly controlling

in the face of HIPAA regulation and other business requirements.

Government

Government organizations face unique
challenges, as their networks must allow for secure access
to applications and resources, the exchange of information,
and the protection of data assets. Government IT professionals
must balance the need to provide precise and secure access
to data resources and applications, regardless of user
location, with the need to protect networks, applications,
and data resources from myriad threats, even as access
is being extended.
