CSI: IT security

Sometimes figuring out where security breaches are occurring or who is perpetrating them requires good, old-fashioned detective work. Technology can help, but there are times when intuition, doggedness and research constitute the necessary extra mile. IT managers who have the ability to be proactive in uncovering illegal activity and assembling the necessary evidence are in great demand. These forensic capabilities are hard to come by: they take not only a thorough knowledge of the most effective tools on the market today, but a good dose of ingenuity. Sometimes, it can pay to hire a third-party specialist with these skills, but more and more, CIOs want someone in-house.
