HOW IS DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION CHALLENGING THE SECURITY CHANGES?

Digital technologies are transforming the business world, and a larger number of companies have adopted the internet-of-things (IoT) devices to move their data into cloud environments for easier and safer access. The advent of these technologies has enabled firms to reimagine the traditional business models to innovate new ways to leverage data for their long-term strategies, growth being one. While digital transformation brings a range of opportunities to today’s companies, at the same time it additionally brings challenges. Some of the most prevalent being the evolving security needs which come with an expanding digital presence. Digital transformation is not a choice; it is a process which all firms must go through. As companies transform their business and take advantage of new technologies like cloud, mobility and internet of things (IoT) there are increasing security risks in the digital transformation which should be considered.
