BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/09/13 -- Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Company (NYSE: HHS), today announced the publication of new research reports from its IT Security and Enterprise Applications research practices.

In "Evolving Your Datacenter? Evolve Your Datacenter Security," written by Derek Brink, Vice President and Research Fellow for IT Security, describes how enterprise datacenters are evolving -- which means that datacenter security should be evolving, too. This report provides examples of how key security technologies and services -- most of which are already very familiar from their traditional use in a physical, on-premise context -- are being re-architected by leading solution providers to work well across a broad range of physical and virtual datacenter deployment scenarios.

"Security for the Small and Mid-Sized Business - Recommendations for 2013," also written by Derek Brink, describes how small and mid-size businesses (SMBs) that are taking advantage of the compelling benefits of the transformations in IT infrastructure should also be re-thinking how they deal with the associated vulnerabilities, threats and risks. Like all organizations, SMBs should move beyond traditional signature-based approaches (i.e., anti-virus and firewalls) and adopt a more comprehensive, defense-in-depth approach to protecting their endpoints, servers, networks, applications and data. Specifically, email security, web security and secure file sharing should be considered foundational security capabilities for every small and mid-sized business, in addition to anti-virus and firewalls.
