SaaS applications like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Salesforce are now a ubiquitous part of business. With so much corporate data now residing in the cloud, a perimeter-based approach to security doesn’t cut it. To enforce cloud data protection policies across SaaS apps, a cloud access security broker (CASB) has become a necessity.

The rise of hybrid work has accelerated digital transformation for organizations of all sizes. As a result, more and more applications and data are moving to the cloud. While this has created a number of benefits — including cost savings, ease of access, and increased operational efficiencies — the cloud has also made it more challenging to protect sensitive data.

Today, cybersecurity companies are in a never-ending race against cyber criminals, each seeking innovative new tactics to outpace the other. The newfound accessibility of generative artificial intelligence (gen AI) has revolutionized how people work, but it's also made threat actors more efficient. Attackers can now quickly create phishing messages or automate vulnerability discoveries.

With the rise of hybrid work, data leakage has become a significant issue. Employees are now working from a variety of locations, including their homes, coffee shops, and even public libraries. This makes it more difficult to keep track of data moving between managed endpoints and your organization's SaaS applications or private apps. Shadow IT, the use of unauthorized or unapproved software and services by employees has always been a challenge for IT departments.

For more than two decades, virtual private networks (VPNs) have been the go-to technology for enterprise remote access — and by extension, for enforcing remote access security. Even ubiquitous internet connections are often redirected via VPN to a central data center, where security enforcement occurs through various hardware appliances. From there, the traffic is forwarded onward to the internet. Of course, it must follow the same indirect path back on the response side.

Over the past decade, the working world has undergone a dramatic transformation. Spending each day of the week in an office is no more for most, while many have the flexibility to work from any location using a device and network that the organisation often has no control over. Productivity levels have certainly increased because of the flexible working environment, but it has opened the door to new challenges, mainly protecting the organisation's critical assets.

We often think of advanced persistent threats or APTs as threats primarily targeting governments for cyber espionage, but they could have just as much impact on the private sector. Oftentimes, both the techniques and the tooling used overlap between APTs and financially-motivated cybercriminals, and some APT groups themselves have taken to moonlighting as cybercriminals for profit.

The perimeter has disappeared. Legacy security technologies do not apply. Devices cannot be trusted. As employees continue to use a mix of managed and unmanaged devices, it sets up the need for a new security architecture: Zero Trust for mobile. Read this whitepaper to.

The time has come for enterprise risk management to change. Mobile devices have become core to our personal and professional lives, yet most enterprises remain focused on traditional PC endpoints. Although many of the same elements of risk that affect PCs also apply to mobile endpoints, simply extending current PC security controls to your mobile fleet is ineffective. Enterprise risk management needs to evolve to address mobile risks, and security professionals must architect mobile-specific security.

Consumer financial institutions are in the midst of a digital transformation that includes moving traditional face-to-face customer interactions to mobile devices. Forty-three percent of people who own a mobile device and have a bank account use mobile banking, according to a Federal Reserve study titled, "Consumers and Mobile Financial Services." Mobile banking creates unprecedented conveniences for customers, such as mobile check deposits, near-instant person-to-person transfers, and access to personal financial accounts in real time.
