MEDIA

“In the late 90’s, a hacker broke into the intranet of one of the leading US newspapers. He got access to the personal information on contributors to the newspaper which included their Social Security numbers. At the same time the hacker listed himself to a list of experts to research high-profile subject matter”

It goes without saying that if media houses are today jacking up their IT security budgets; it is to prevent such hacking attacks which can wreak havoc on not only a company but also the society at large. Given the tremendous influence media has on public mind, a dreadful rumor, planted by a hacker, from a respected media source can cause untold damage. Appin Security Group is already providing end to end Information Security Consulting to leading media houses in the country. The suite of services offered by ASG for Information Security in the media industry has been appreciated by all concerned.
