Having had exactly the same experience that you described with our F500 customers (regarding keeping proprietary data behind the firewall), I agree that security of Web 2.0 solutions for the enterprise is critical. Not only because of the current threats, but also because what is coming ahead as more consumer technologies penetrate corporate America. At WorkLight we enable secure access to enterprise data via interactive tools, gadgets and widgets, personalized homepages, etc, but only behind the corporate firewall. Being able to present data through Web 2.0 tools (like iGoogle), while keeping the enterprise secure by keeping the data inside the firewall and by enforcing corporate access policies, gives you the best of both worlds – use of popular consumer interfaces, and secure enterprise data. Anything else would be fair game… A very interesting take on what’s expected in 2008.
