The IRS Importance -

THE IRS collected $2,345,337,177 of revenue for the Federal Government for the year 2009. This amount constitutes roughly 96% of the total Federal Revenue.

The approximate percentage breakdown of Federal Revenue is as follows:

Taxes Collected via the IRS:

Individual – 45%Payroll – 36%Corporate – 12%Excise – 3%

The remaining 4% of Federal Revenue is derived from Federal Reserve, Customs, and Miscellaneous fees and fines.

Data Centers morph into the Network! Data Center Virtualization

Growing from 18% of Data Center Workloads in 2009 to over 50% in 2012 per Gartner

Effective Security Practices must be baked in from inception of a well strategized Virtual Data Center (VDC) deployment!

Per Gartner: 60 % of virtual servers employed in this new rapid growth are more vulnerable than the original server deployment “One of the major causes of this issue is a lack of involvement of the IT security

team in the architecture and planning stages of development,” Gartner said. About 40 % of the surveyed organizations had not brought security

professionals into the projects. Dark cloud: Study finds security risks in virtualization*

Risk factors to consider: A vulnerable virtualization layer will compromise the hosted applications …

focus proven security controls in the VDC configuration process and procedures upfront

Network management visibility and processes that fail to make internal virtual networks transparent to proven security protection tools and protocols … what can I see and when

Fusing of trust levels on the same physical server without adequate separation … remain vigilant about data mining and Semantic Web 2.0 techniques that allow sensitive network intelligence to be ”manufactured” that could spill into unprotected channels

Web 2.0: Window to Virtual Data Centers The email with attachment is no longer the attack vector on networked Data

Centers: “The vast majority of attacks actually come through the Web, and yet it is

amazing how few people actually scan their http or https, their secure connections to Web mail,” said Bob Hansmann, Blue Coat Systems Social media opens new door to cyberattacks, panel says**

Facebook and MySpace Accounts exceed email user accounts by 10% and growing

The Web 2.0 Culture of exponential information sharing trends among uninformed users is inviting malicious attacks into the VDC due to this lax security awareness: “The top three IT security issues today are malware, inappropriate employee

activity or network use, and issues related to remote Web access, said Andy Lausch, vice president of CDW Government, citing a recent CDW-G survey. “**

The new Web 2.0 behaviors are evolving faster than VDC gaps can be analyzed: “All too often I see a lot of customers and a lot of agencies that actually don’t

even know where their gaps are…Threats are going to be changing. They’re ever-evolving and becoming much more complex.” said Stan Oien, a security manager at CDW-G

Modeling and simulation of Semantic Web 2.0 behavior patterns will allow more aggressive analysis and mitigation of VDC vulnerability gaps
