A Guide For Mid-Market CIOs
The digital transformation of businesses has pushed more applications and services to the Cloud. Coupled with the rapid shift to a work from home (WFH) environment, the need to share content is growing dramatically. In turn, security and compliance personnel are challenged to understand and address new threats to information security.
More web applications mean more web traffic. While this can be forced through an internal VPN when workers are on premises, remote workers may elect to bypass a corporate VPN and use poorly-secured WiFi networks and personal devices to access cloud-based business applications. As a result, organizations are likely to have “data sprawl,” with sensitive data on personal devices, in mailboxes, in consumer-oriented file sharing applications, and in unsanctioned applications.
More cloud applications and more data in the cloud, accessed from more (unsecured) locations and devices presents an enormous attack surface to defend.
