Cyberattacks are a threat to businesses worldwide, and they are getting larger and more sophisticated. The industry’s approach to protecting against these threats must change fundamentally to stay ahead of this growing threat. For too long, the problem has been tackled piecemeal, using isolated devices or services, but protecting against advanced cyberattacks requires communication and coordination among many components—from networking equipment, to specialized appliances, cloud-based services, as well as actionable threat intelligence.
A shift in security architecture is needed, to an open platform where devices and services from different vendors can share, and act, on threat intelligence information, all in concert and in the proper context. It must be a hybrid platform; allowing on-premises security appliances to detect and mitigate attacks, locally, while automating alerts, and switchover, to cloud-based services should an attack threaten to swamp the business’ network connection.
Join Ramakant Pandrangi, Vice President of Technology, and learn how to assist with designing a resilient security ecosystem by maximizing an API-centric approach. In this session, Ramakant will discuss how to:
• Evaluate the Threat Landscape
• Design for Both Security and Flexibility
• Prepare for Incidents – Orchestrate Responses
• Expand to a Hybrid Premise and Cloud Security Architecture
