Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not a recently discovered field. Since the beginning of the computer science discipline, in the late 1950s, AI has drawn a lot of attention in the international scientific community and since then it has represented a field of study which has triggered diverse and numerous research activities.

Organizations are rapidly adopting digital innovation (DI) initiatives to accelerate their businesses, reduce costs, improve efficiency, and provide better customer experiences. Common initiatives involve moving applications and workflows to the cloud, deploying Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices on the corporate network, and expanding the organization’s footprint to new branch locations. With this evolving infrastructure also come security risks. Organizations must cope with growing attack surfaces, advanced threats, increased infrastructure complexity, and an expanding regulatory landscape. To accomplish their desired DI outcomes while effectively managing risks and minimizing complexities, organizations need to adopt a cybersecurity platform that provides visibility across their environment and a means to manage both security and network operations easily.

Digital transformation has brought significant benefits to organizations, including increased agility and flexibility, but it has also led to a rise in cyber attack vectors. 66% of organizations were hit with ransomware within the last year, according to a 2022 Sophos survey. The widespread adoption of cloud services and Software-as-aService (SaaS) applications has expanded the attack surface, making it more challenging to manage and secure data. Additionally, the increased use of mobile devices and remote work have made it easier for cybercriminals to launch attacks from anywhere, at any time.

Ransomware continues to be among the most critical risks facing organizations of all sizes. Attackers have perfected techniques and business models that will pose a challenge to even the best prepared organizations. While the encryption of a high volume of computers on a network can potentially be mitigated by adequate backups, ransomware actors have discovered new avenues of extortion, such as threatening to release data stolen prior to encryption. While ransomware attacks are time consuming to perform, ransomware actors have managed to achieve scale through the introduction of “ransomware-as-a-service” operations, renting out their tools and infrastructure to other attackers in exchange for a cut of the profits.

You work to protect your business from the impact of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, as well as other cyberattacks. You want to keep your customers’ trust in your service by maintaining the availability and responsiveness of your application. And you want to avoid unnecessary direct costs when your infrastructure must scale in response to an attack.

Cybersecurity has changed. The attack surface has expanded, thanks to the rapid adoption of cloud applications and services, shift to remote work, and proliferation of mobile devices. Having enterprise systems, applications, and data in one location and relying on layers of security tools and controls to keep attackers out, is no longer sufficient when the bulk of data and workloads now live outside the traditional network. Attackers are also increasingly targeting credentials to appear as legitimate users.
