Data security as resilience foundation

In addition to securing the network from external threats, writing secure application code that thwarts injection attacks (where attackers exploit vulnerabilities in an application to send malicious code into a system) or cross-origin attacks (where a malicious script that doesn’t belong to the source domain attacks a website), which typically protects threats originating from outside organizations while providing data security in transit, it is also important to secure data at rest. Several studies have shown that bad actors can also originate from within organizations and have exploited poorly secured data storage environments (https://arcticwolf.com/resources/glossary/threat-actor/).

Essentially, securing data in transit and data at rest are both critical to ensuring that data integrity is maintained.

Taking precautions and preventive measures is critical to providing data security in large organizations. With the increasing reliance...
