This year, security teams face more challenges — old and new — and grapple with high rates of burnout. Cloud complexity, supply chain attacks and additional obstacles are pushing security teams to the limits, and inspiring new responses. New research points to key strategies that will help organizations weather the complex challenges and attacks ahead.
In the past, the attack surface was defined and protected by the boundaries of the organization’s physical network (aka the LAN). Using physical security methods, firewalls, and careful monitoring, organizations kept their data, endpoints, and networks secure. The entire attack surface was internal, within a well-defined and fortified perimeter.
Network monitoring solutions can overcome the security visibility blind spots in Kubernetes environments, by providing a source of truth for SOC analysts. Container security solutions broadly span the spectrum of (a) prevention - securing the container image and ensuring the right policies are in place during runtime and (b) detection - monitoring runtime events for threat detection and investigation.
Amidst sweeping digital transformation across the globe, numerous organizations have been seeking a better way to manage data. Still in the beginning stages of adoption, data fabric provides many possibilities as an integrated layer that unifies data from across endpoints. A combination of factors has created a digital environment where data is stored in several places at once, leaving cracks in security for fraudsters to take advantage of.

As the new year continues to unfold, cybersecurity budget holders will be deep into the process of identifying where to allocate funds to best enhance protection against cyberthreats. The good news is that budgets are rising, with industry commentators frequently reporting that companies are committing more money to strengthening their posture against persistent and sophisticated threats.
In the face of this constant disruption, CIOs are supporting the addition, amendment, or strengthening of logistics workflows, supply chains, commercial and service delivery models, partnerships, and geographic footprints. In all of these programmes, CIOs often see cybersecurity as a hurdle—one more challenge to navigate in the path to a successful business outcome.
It’s no secret that cloud service providers like AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure give teams incredible power and flexibility when it comes to delivering great solutions and user experiences to a global customer base. Leveraging the power of one or more clouds is often seen as a critical competency for an organization to succeed.
