Statistics and news show that the number of cybersecurity threats is virtually out of control. One might think that the massive increase in threats means that the sophistication of individual attacks would be on the decline. However, this is not attacks are smarter and more targeted than ever before.
The threat landscape of threats, corporate network infrastructures are becoming harder to protect than ever before. difficult to protect than ever before. The distributed nature of remote remote offices, employees and resources deployed in the cloud means that IT security professionals must integrate multiple layers of end-to-end security end-to-end, rather than just focusing on securing the edge of the network.
And the challenge becomes ever greater
Add the advance of innovation projects with IoT solutions and other technologies, which makes the challenge becomes ever greater.
Hundreds or even thousands of autonomous mobile and IoT devices, often insecure, connected to corporate systems create a situation where greater network visibility to limit the risk of breaches due to network devices. devices.
Achieving and maintaining visibility is a challenge that many companies still have to overcome.
It's foolish to think that IT security teams can manage expansive and sophisticated threats, while at the same time managing the growing attack surface with manual processes and the same old security tools that exist in many organizations today. in many organizations.
It's time to see how new tools can be employed to make the task more manageable and efficient.
The network security tools to combat modern threats
Many security administrators are looking to automation and AI to eliminate time-consuming processes processes, freeing up time to investigate threats when necessary.
These tools can automatically identify vulnerabilities and create security controls to protect users, applications and data against emerging threats.
In addition AI and machine learning resources can be integrated into firewalls, AIOps (artificial intelligence for IT operations), behavioral analysis, endpoint protection and endpoint protection and web and email security, as well as state-of-the-art penetration testing software. testing software.
Synchronizing threat data across multiple security tools is another way for IT security teams to stay ahead of security teams to stay ahead of emerging threats. One way to achieve this is to use APIs integrated into security tools. This allows new security defense controls to be propagated more quickly throughout the network. network.
A new that protects the organization from modern threats
Usually, several solutions are recommended to provide a layered security strategy. This relies on the use of several point products to increase the probability of detecting a specific threat that is able to avoid detection by any one product alone.
However, neither products nor a layered security strategy are capable of provide continuous protection in today's ever-changing threat landscape. today.
Traditional devices have limited ability to share security data they were not designed to share and correlate data and keep important safety information in different data silos.
Security data data directed to the firewall, for example, only serves to provide passive information about an event that has already occurred and forces organizations to react to threats instead of preventing data breaches.
The integration and correlation of security event data from various security technologies is necessary to detect compatibility problems between equipment from various suppliers. Alert formats often differ between solutions and lead to operational challenges.
However, many organizations now recognize the need for a solution capable of detecting sophisticated and advanced threats, as well as mass distributed and commoditized malware. commoditized.
To meet the challenges associated with traditional network security models, a corporate network security solution must provide an integrated architecture of advanced detection technologies.
Finally, the solution should function as a complete and independent replacement for traditional network security solutions or as a complementary overlay by integrating additional functionalities to adapt to new technologies and threats, incorporating and integrating essential security applications into a single system by architectural design, with centralized administration, operation and reporting.
