Let us manage your risks

You would agree that over the last 12-18 months the way you run your business and manage your teams has changed.

Perhaps, forever!

More workloads are on the cloud. More customers are engaging in digital transactions, expecting smooth but also secure online experiences. More regulatory compliance requirements – getting more stringent. More contractors, suppliers, partners, and employees working remotely.

This means the attack surface has expanded, as your data, your applications, and your users are everywhere, rendering the traditional perimeter-based approach to security ineffective.

There has been a continuous increase in the scale and complexity of attacks on enterprises. The average number of days to identify and contain an attack has increased more than 10% in the last 4 years to 320 days.

The need of the hour is to strengthen your incident readiness and response with intelligent threat detection and faster response times.

As a result, organizations are seriously contemplating the adoption of security frameworks like Zero Trust that can increase the chances of preventing a breach and, more importantly, minimize the impact if an organization is breached. New because, even as the concept has been around for over a decade, its implementation up until now was limited.

Additionally, organizations need to reimagine security to confidently move to hybrid multicloud, leveraging a modern, open, and unified approach to detect, investigate, and respond to threats faster.

Making this more challenging is the effort to recruit and retain the best cybersecurity professionals. In fact, Frost & Sullivan predicts that the widening gap between available qualified cybersecurity professionals and unfulfilled positions will reach 1.8 million by 2022.

So, what does mean for you, the CISO?

You need to proactively manage and respond to security threats, address the security skills shortages, and enable a secure migration of workloads to the cloud.
