Cyber Attacks Inflict Unprecedented Damage; Enterprises Still Lack Intelligence - As Threats Become Increasingly Severe And Complex, NSFOCUS Urges Enterprises To Adopt An Intelligent Hybrid Security Strategy

Date 13/09/2016

Cyber attacks aren’t slowing down – in fact, 76 percent of organisations have experienced a breach within the last two years. Enterprises of all sizes, across every industry, are challenged to respond to increasingly complex and severe attacks – often only learning about the size, severity, and type of incident they’re dealing with as their security teams work to stop them. However, many organisations continue to maintain a reactive approach – implementing stand-alone point solutions that only fragment and silo security efforts. NSFOCUS, a global network and application security provider, recommends an intelligent hybrid security approach based on harnessing true global threat intelligence across an organisation’s cyber defences (hybrid cloud and on-premises), and turning that insight into action – to proactively and holistically protect assets across the organisation.
