NETFLASH: BREAKING NEWS FROM NETWORKWORLD.COM

By Jeff Caruso

In an age when information is power, empowering your employees
means handing them vital company information. But employees make
mistakes, and they might accidentally leak the data to outside
parties. Or they might intentionally misuse the data to make a
buck or hurt the company. Whatever the case, a security manager
needs to be prepared, and vendors are here to help.

HR outsourcing takes on new life

There's more to human resources outsourcing than finding a
service provider to manage a discrete chore such as payroll.
These days companies are handing over broad sets of HR functions
- from payroll and benefits processing to recruitment and
employee management - to service providers that promise to trim
costs, streamline processes and deliver integrated performance
metrics in return. IT staff have a key role to play in ironing
out network, security and application details, experts say.

Q&A: AT&T's security head wears many hats

AT&T's Chief Security Information Officer Ed Amoroso recently
spoke with Network World senior editors Denise Pappalardo and
Ellen Messmer about his job heading up security for one of the
largest telecom companies in the world, as well as the topics of
patch management, intrusion-prevention systems and worm attacks.
