Does mobility come at the cost of security? It's a question that many IT pros are asking themselves. There's no denying that mobile computing comes with some inherent risks. Even when one doesn't have to worry about getting hacked over public Wi-Fi, or having their credentials stolen, there's always the threat of old fashioned theft, or someone forgetting their phone in a bar. Risks like these can keep you up at night, but the bigger risk would be missing out on what could be a boon to your company. The reality is that no computer or network is completely secure. Mobile computing may be more risky than other forms of computing, but it's pointless to chase a perfectly secure network. One way or another, you'll need to reconcile your security concerns with the need to go mobile.

TechRepublic and ZDNet are proud to present, The I.T. Factor: Security in a Mobile and Cloud World, a live and interactive video webcast that explores the risks of mobile computing and how modern IT can overcome them.

Join Emmy Award winning journalist Jonas Tichenor as he leads the discussion with the Editors-in-Chief, Larry Dignan and Jason Hiner on the subject of mobile and cloud security in this episode of The I.T. Factor. We'll explore:
  • Switching from security to risk management
  • Why you should stop thinking of security as a perimeter
  • Why IT should be more concerned with cloud control than cloud security.

Watch Now--The I.T. Factor: Security in a Mobile and Cloud World. Discover why paranoia is no reason to keep you from being a part of the mobile computing revolution.
