Network security is the missing piece in today’s cyber strategy
Cybersecurity spending has been rising steadily, but with breaches becoming even more frequent, where is all that extra budget actually going?
Many businesses have been layering cybersecurity solutions on top of outdated network architecture. Over the last decade, hybrid connectivity and cloud-based applications have made IT architecture far more complex. Now, businesses need security that is embedded in the network itself.
In the video above, Caitlin Sarian, a.k.a. Cybersecurity Girl, breaks down why network-embedded security needs to be first layer of protection in a company’s defense.
The larger and busier the network is, the more powerful network-embedded security becomes. The AT&T global network carries more than 614 petabytes of data traffic on an average day — that visibility helps AT&T identify malicious behavior and apply threat intelligence to stop bad actors to help protect its customers.
