Executive View
Top Level Objectives
The global and connected nature of business today has made companies more vulnerable to digital asset and identify theft, as sharing of information with business partners, employees, and third parties has increased opportunities for data loss, misuse and compromise. If these risks weren’t motivation enough, increasingly rigorous regulatory requirements are demanding that businesses implement stricter internal controls over sensitive data. Failure to comply with these regulations not only leaves your company at risk for security breaches - and the associated reputation damage and financial losses that can occur - but it can also result in severe financial penalties if your company is audited. Yet, even compliance provides only a minimum level of protection and is ultimately inadequate security for today’s myriad threats. By having a comprehensive security and identify management strategy in place, companies can establish an advantage over competitors and minimize their financial, IP and reputational risk. Just as importantly, having confidence in your security and identity management protection allows your company the freedom to push the envelope of its business.
Rolta TUSC provides services for security and identity management that provide compliance, automate processes, reduce operational and audit support costs and enable secure governed processes. Our services focus on first providing a safe, well controlled and automated IT environment to improve business performance. We then assist organizations in strategically and tactically addressing their governance, risk, and compliance requirements. If you need to more securely conduct business, feel there is misalignment between your IT security initiatives and business objectives or need to reduce compliance and support costs, Rolta TUSC is poised to help transform your business.

Technical View
Technical Issues
Technical advancements and threats outpace nearly every organization’s ability to manage security and identities. The operational and administrative management costs of providing these services are only outweighed by the cost of not performing them, yet IT continues to feel the pressure to do more with less. With constrained resources, many IT organizations today are only performing minimalistic, compliance-mandated action items in response to failure, non-compliance and audit results. To provide true security, IT organizations must become proactive in the management and protection of their digital assets. They must create a roadmap and begin to execute against a well-devised, holistic plan to address security and identity management.
