Adopting a proactive approach to security with Extended Security Posture Management (XSPM)

Is cloud security your top priority, or it is languishing somewhere on a never-ending to do list? A user-driven cloud revolution has left IT and security professionals struggling to establish visibility of data and services, and unable to regain control of the risks associated with dispersed data and multiple cloud identities. So how should organizations regain control and begin putting the “frogs back into the box” for multi-cloud security? In this webinar, we will look at how to get ahead with cloud, build a ‘cloud culture’ into your business, underpinned by a platform approach to avoid further complicating the picture to get the most from the cloud, whilst also managing the challenges of data everywhere, multiple cloud identities, mobile connections and global compliance.

When it comes to larger or more complex organizations, managing cyber security risks requires a more intensive approach than implementing basic security protection. Embedding risk-based security controls, managing the security of supply chains, and carrying out regular audits are some of the many measures an organization may need to take to manage and reduce risk.

Reports of network intrusions have spiked in recent years resulting in millions in financial loses, theft of intellectual property, and exposure of customer information. The groups responsible for these attacks are organized and can persist in your organization’s systems and endpoints without detection for 6 months on average – sometimes years. The approach many organizations take to prevent these attacks is to simply layer on increasing numbers of defensive solutions – clearly a better approach is needed.

Protecting an organization from the increasing threat of cyber attacks can be challenging. Employees are a crucial line of defense, and ensuring they know their security responsibilities and how to spot a cyber attack is critical.
