With an ever-expanding array of security threats targeting corporate networks and infrastructure, CISOs and the security team can get overwhelmed with additional responsibilities to ensure the alignment of business objectives with IT and security strategies. However, enterprise security technology might hold a solution. Automation specifically, integrating technologies to the network such as machine learning and artificial intelligence can supplement the humans overseeing IT security.

Poised at the helm of helping security teams to prevent harmful incidents, industry experts have come with ways to identify and eliminate potential threats. Cloud-based enterprise security solutions that cover the end-to-end value chain of an organization proactively monitor and thwart threats while reducing the cost of ownership for stakeholders. Stringent firewalls, guided by data analytics algorithms regularly probing into suspicious and iterative patterns, keep perpetrators at check. Enterprises are also inclined toward advanced technologies like big data and customer identity and access management system to securely collect and manage customer and employee data. Also, numerous enterprises are shifting their entire IT infrastructure to the cloud and implementing attribute-based access control method to secure their assets present in the cloud.

Enterprise security experts have made great progress in the so-called ‘war’ against cybercrime. But to triumph over cybercrime, enterprises will require both new strategies as well as advanced techniques. With pervasive network and infrastructure resilience, the future business can grow with confidence.
