FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Security Infrastructure
For an MSP looking to grow business, the convergence of SD-WAN and security, along with the transitional needs of customers, translates to opportunity.
With IT budgets being cut back in response to the economic contraction caused by the current health crisis, security teams need to deliver more with less.
Organizations should regularly put security products, processes and people to the test, and the reward is better, more efficient protection against attacks.
Network connections that can change instantaneously in response to shifting business requirements can take a security solution minutes or hours to be reconfigured. And that lag time is prime for exploitation.
Working remotely should be a positive experience. Here are a few simple suggestions that may help during this time of change.
Static passwords lack the ability to verify whether the user accessing data is authentic or just someone who bought a compromised password.
It’s up to humans, guided by instinct, intelligence and experience, to determine the right data, so they can focus on what matters to the organization, make better decisions and take the right actions.
Many organizations are not aware that their network sensors are improperly or inefficiently deployed because they do not have a full understanding of how to act on the network traffic being collected.
The philosophy of integrating security practices within DevOps is obviously sensible, but by attaching a different label perhaps we are likely admitting that this “fusion” is more of an emulsification.
A security platform is much more than just wrapping a collection of security tools together into a single bundle and then adding some sort of a shell script so independent management tools appear to be part of a congruent solution.
