Many corporations today employ multiple techniques to protect against data loss. Unfortunately, the various approaches are often applied and managed in an uncoordinated manner. Ironically, the nightly backup, for some critical classes of applications, becomes almost irrelevant, representing a tertiary, "last ditch" level of data protection.

The FrSIRT site has posted a new advisory for users of the Vivvo Article Management CMS software about potential holes that could allow for some very large-scale damage to be done.    Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Vivvo Article Management CMS, which could be exploited by remote attackers to compromise a vulnerable server.   The first issue is due to an input validation error in the "pdf_version.php" script that does not validate the "id" parameter before being used in SQL statements, which could be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.   The second vulnerability is due to an input validation error in the "index.php" script that do not validate the "classified_path" parameter, which may be exploited by remote attackers to include local or remote scripts with the privileges of the web server.    Versions 3.2 and higher of the software are effected, and, unfortunately, there has been no patch issued for the issue.

Leveraging its October 2007 purchase of Berkeley Data Systems [BDS], EMC announced this week that it will offer an enterprise backup and recovery solution, MozyEnterprise, over a hosted SaaS platform for desktops, laptops, and remote servers.The service will become part of EMC's Fortress hosted services and will offer RSA-level security, a capability that was not available when the product was owned by BDS and marketed as Mozy Professional. The solution includes integrated key management, authentication and authorization security. Over time, EMC will offer other SaaS solutions, according to officials.The EMC solution will compete directly with Iron Mountain's DataDefense backup and recovery SaaS service. However, EMC lacks a key capability that Iron Mountain offers, according to Adam Couture, a principal analyst with Gartner. "DataDefense encrypts everything on the laptop," said Couture. "MozyEnterprise does not have this capability."An EMC spokesperson confirmed this, saying that data is encrypted once it leaves the laptop or desktop and is stored by EMC.The company will either have to develop the encryption capability on its own or partner with another company in order to be competitive, but the fact that GE used Mozy Professional before the acquisition and is apparently staying with the product from EMC gives EMC enterprise credibility, he added.Pricing for a desktop/laptop is $5.25 per month per desktop/laptop plus $0.70 per gigabyte protected. Windows server pricing is $9.25 per month per supported Windows server plus $2.35 per month per gigabyte protected.

Over the next two years network based storage virtualization will remain a niche, while thin provisioning will enjoy rapid adoption in the enterprise. And, applying network-based storage virtualization to pool arrays isn't likely to improve this environment if efficient utilization hasn't already been achieved.
