Over the past decade, many organizations shifted their security focus from regulatory compliance to metrics business intelligence. What's the latest shift? Vivek Shivananda of Rsam explains.

State-sponsored attacks are up significantly, so organizations need to rely on new, stronger controls to ward off advanced threats. John Gordineer of Dell SonicWALL discusses the role of next-generation firewalls.

Former federal banking examiner Amy McHugh says banks can learn a lot from recent legal decisions and settlements in account takeover cases, including which authentication and online-banking security investments they should make.
