Large enterprises have concerns about bringing their data to the cloud – and rightfully so. Cyberattacks can require significant capital to remedy and bring an immeasurable cost to a brand’s marketplace reputation.
As much as the ever-swelling array of data and connected devices – phones, thermostats, medical devices, and the like – has streamlined operations and boosted efficiencies, this new era of automation and intelligence has also complicated cybersecurity. New technologies, after all, create new risks. For nefarious cyberattackers, smart devices are simply another potential door they might crack open.
Enterprises want to leverage connected devices to empower agility and innovation, of course, but they must balance that progressive push with sound security solutions, especially as data moves from traditional data centers or the cloud to the edge – the point where sensors, devices, and people play.
With a proven track record of helping enterprises develop the architecture to ensure data is protected, American Digital can help analyze the threat landscape, your IT assets, and craft a calculated response rooted in:
Visibility: With the ability to see everything on your network, security and access can be tailored accordingly.
Controls: From backup to making thoughtful decisions about what should (or should not) be stored in the cloud, strategically implemented controls ensure more responsible, secure IT operations.
Layered Defense: Rather than relying solely on a perimeter defense, a multi-layered defense including firewalls, antivirus software, authentication, access controls, and more helps mitigate risk.
A Security-First Mindset: Security should weave throughout the enterprise as a foundational staple of everything from R&D to marketing to HR with IT as collaborating agents.
Comprehensive Security: Gathering, fusing, and streamlining data from across the enterprise ignites a more comprehensive view of threats and creates proactive, intelligence-driven cyber defense.
Balance: Finding the right mix of people, process, and technology drives earnest decision making made with perspective and purpose.
The dangers in today’s hyperconnected world stand greater than ever and enterprises must respond with an equally aggressive defense that protects data from edge to cloud, insulates the enterprise from risk, and, ultimately, powers innovation.
