While viruses are not a huge threat at this point, there's a rare opportunity to get ahead of what analysts believe will become a major headache. As with any enterprise security effort, user education is the first element. Also consider pulling in either vendor or consulting services to make sure network and device protection is up to date. Another best practice is to know exactly what data may be stored by users and how best to protect those confidential business files.
