Visibility, Measurability, and “Securability”: Achieving Resilient Cloud-to-edge Security 

Wed October 04, 2023 02:23 PM

Summary

Enterprise security leaders face a myriad of operational challenges: They must secure operations, manage risk, and — in a world of constrained budgets — find ways to do more with less. Meanwhile, threat actors attack with seeming impunity, targeting vulnerable organizations with cyberattacks that grow more frequent, more sophisticated, and more damaging. IBM’s 2022 “Cost of a Data Breach” study found that 83% of organizations suffer more than one data breach, with each breach costing USD$4.83 million, on average.

In a Virtual Think Tank session, Frost & Sullivan Cybersecurity Industry Director Toph Whitmore spoke with industry security experts to get their perspectives on gaining visibility to detect, investigate, and respond to threats; connecting tools, workflows, insights, and people to improve security posture; and employing artificial intelligence and machine-learning to reduce threat exposure.

The document benefits greatly from the diverse expertise of its panelists, who bring a wealth of experience from different industries. This diversity enriches the discussion, providing a well-rounded view of the cybersecurity landscape. However, the document could further enhance its impact by incorporating more case studies or real-world examples to illustrate the implementation of the discussed strategies.

The emphasis on these three pillars (visibility, measurability, and 'securability') is particularly relevant in today's rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape..

The discussion on the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in enhancing cybersecurity defenses is timely and pertinent. The document could further benefit the community by providing more detailed guidance or frameworks on how to effectively integrate these technologies into existing cybersecurity strategies.
