There are three main trends driving organizations to replace outdated wide-area networking (WAN) infrastructures with a secure software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) solution. Digital acceleration that leverages Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) increases traffic demands, cost, and performance bottlenecks of multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) connectivity over traditional WAN infrastructures. The work-from-anywhere model, meant to be a short-term ...
Endpoint security solutions range from signature-based endpoint protection platform (EPP) or antivirus (AV) solutions to extended detection and response (XDR) platforms that tie multiple security solutions together. Organizations that are evaluating endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions need to ensure that the products they are considering will meet their needs in the areas. Discover them ...

Maintaining strong network security has become more challenging than ever in today’s educational ecosystem. That’s because the adoption of advanced learning technologies, along with an increased reliance on cloud applications and services, have introduced new security threats that must be met head on. Unfortunately, relying on traditional tools such as anti-virus software and firewalls to ...
Organizations often struggle to achieve an effective security posture because of the complexity of managing disparate point security solutions that don’t integrate well. The prevalence of remote workers and cloud apps has also eroded strict perimeters. A new generation of firewalls can address this challenge by providing application workload control and network control on premises, ...
Businesses today are more than standalone organizations. They have complicated ecosystems with intersections between the corporation and their customers, suppliers, and partners. Every day, businesses contend securing the billions of connections made between their people, devices, and data, while also dealing with constantly shifting work patterns, like hybrid work. When everything is open and connected, ...
Network firewalls are a critical line of defense in securing enterprise networks and protecting their vital data. The rapid transition to cloud infrastructure makes managing networks quite complex and cumbersome, leaving security and information technology (IT) teams with the overwhelming task of determining proper restrictions and access. Since 1984, Cisco Systems (Cisco) has served as ...
The digital transformation era is changing how organizations leverage technology to fulfill their business objectives. One key change is in the approach to security. Traditional security architecture focused on a hardened perimeter with a vulnerable interior. Modern security practices focus instead on multiple key control points, such as the network, endpoints, applications, and identities. Each ...

The purpose of this study is to provide readers with a framework to evaluate the potential financial impact of Secure Firewall on their organizations. To better understand the ...
The overall frequency of ransomware detections might be leveling off, but the sophistication, aggressiveness, and impact of this threat continues relentlessly. Threat actors continue to pound away at organizations with a variety of new and previously seen ransomware strains, often leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. The U.S. Treasury says ransomware payouts in ...
Endpoint security solutions range from signature-based endpoint protection platform (EPP) or antivirus (AV) solutions to extended detection and response (XDR) platforms that tie multiple security solutions together. Organizations that are evaluating endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions need to ensure that the products they are considering will meet their needs in the following areas. Discover ...
Today’s organizations have a broad digital attack surface spanning a diverse set of devices, user locations, networks, and clouds, providing many avenues of entry and exfiltration for cybercriminals. Increasingly, these cybercriminals are doing more than stealing data, often encrypting whole systems and interrupting business operations with ransomware, a threat that’s increased 15x over the past ...
According to the Fortinet February 2022 Global Threat Landscape Report, industries worldwide experienced a dramatic 15x growth in ransomware volume over the past 18 months, with sustained volume throughout 2021. Furthermore, attacks are harder to stop because of the evolution of increasing capabilities thanks to a very active economy of threat actors with fresh code ...
