Futureproof defense strategy
We have been discussing cutting-edge developments in security, but building a futureproof defense strategy requires thinking beyond just chasing the latest technological innovations or reacting to trendy threat headlines. The most resilient architectures rely on a timeless principle: defense in depth. This layered approach offers multiple safeguards against constantly evolving threats and ensures that our defenses can adapt alongside the technology itself.
Fortifying the “layers” for tomorrow involves the following:
- Network perimeter and beyond: Perimeter security remains vital, but it evolves alongside cloud migration and remote work trends. Solutions such as zero trust, micro-segmentation, and advanced endpoint protection ensure the perimeter follows the data and user, not just physical office boundaries.
- Identity as the control plane: Robust IAM is the new foundation. This involves sophisticated authentication, privileged...
