IT security strategy guide for businesses

With cyber-threats continuing to grow in number and sophistication, security should be a top priority for CIOs — now more than ever before. In this Essential Guide, learn how to combat cyber-threats and get expert advice on developing an effective IT security strategy.

Introduction

Despite substantial efforts to contain cyber-security threats, they continue to grow and are expected to get worse before they get better, according to experts. In the  annual IT security strategy priorities survey of nearly 971 North American IT professionals, security once again was identified as an area in which a considerable percentage of IT professionals — 23% in this year’s survey — devote most of their time, second only to general IT management, which was cited by 27% of respondents. To make sure that time isn’t spent treading water, CIOs and IT executives need to develop an IT security strategy that utilizes the right tools and encompasses the many facets of IT — from mobile and cloud to IoT and analytics and everything in between.

In this Essential Guide, explore the cyber-security landscape and absorb the latest information around next-generation security architectures, attack detection and response, governmental intervention in the professional threat economy and how companies are handling data breaches.
