Cyber defense trends and how to tackle them
With more users, devices and applications connecting to the network, the number of risks and vulnerabilities is also increasing – triggering a total transformation in the IT security landscape. Are you ready to tackle the challenges faced by distributed organizations? Based on ESG findings and other recent research, we’ve identified four major cybersecurity trends and outlined how we can help.
Remote workers. Branch offices. An ever-expanding perimeter.
SaaS apps. Unsanctioned downloads.
Malicious cryptomining and ransomware. More cyber threats, more exposure, more risks.
Standalone web security limitations. The frustration of disjointed point solutions.
Peeling back the layers on a complicated IT security problem
There has to be a better way. IT security professionals need simplicity, transparency, and better network security. But how do we balance it all without breaking the bank or tiring overworked teams? IT needs a way to gain better visibility, secure web users, simplify deployment, and scale cyber defense with limited resources.
Let’s break down these cybersecurity challenges and see how we can get ahead of threats by taking a new approach to security.
