3 Strategies to Enhance Security for Productivity While Remote
Scaling your security strategy to accommodate a remote workforce is no longer optional — it’s essential.
Why the Future of Security Is Cloud Native
In theory, a cloud-based security solution should provide the necessary flexibility and scalability. However, many so-called cloud solutions were not designed for the cloud but instead retrofitted for it, relying on script languages to provide automated capabilities.
Why a People-Centric Approach to Security Has Become a Necessity
A technology-centric approach to cybersecurity is essential, but not sufficient. The nation’s recent history of data breaches, many of which began with phishing attacks, suggests that agencies need to take a people-centric approach as well.
Intelligent Network Visibility Serves as Security Force Multiplier
Any discussion about improving the security of the federal IT enterprise sooner or later comes around to the topic of network visibility.
Evolving Cyber Policies Clear Way for Cloud Adoption
The federal government’s sudden, widespread transition to a remote work environment has highlighted the importance of its decision to make policy decisions that remove barriers to cloud adoption.
