• Best Practices in Security for Offshore Development Centers (2011)

  Security is high on the list of every CIO's concerns. While data breaches make more headlines, piracy of proprietary business software also poses a real threat. Proprietary knowledge and company secrets are twice as valuable as custodial data such as payment card information and other customer and medical data, according to a 2010 Forrester report.

  With this changing landscape, companies need to be more vigilant than ever about the security of their partners as well as their own. Clients should settle for nothing less than a best-practices approach of multiple and overlapping security layers involving the three P's: people, processes and physical protections. This paper will discuss how people, processes and physical protection influence the security of an offshore development center. It will also introduce best practices for security and explain what to look for in choosing a secure offshore vendor.
