Endpoint protection – not the sexiest of subjects? However, a vital one for your business security. And one that most businesses spend a lot of time and resources on. Yet, as we have seen several times in the news, all types of companies get breached, with severe consequences.
Why is this?
There are several reasons:
- You’re dealing with an explosion of endpoints and software: New users, mobile workstations, cloud apps – not to mention the host of new patches and updates needed for your existing endpoints.
- The threat landscape keeps changing: With new threat vectors like ransomware adding to the complexity of the huge number of known threats.
- You have a fragmented view of security: Different technologies don’t work together so you don’t have a view of your current vulnerabilities.
- Your human users make human errors: Uninstalling security software, using new services, falling for phishing scams…
- Increasingly important work is done on the web: Business-critical work such as banking and using CRM isn’t going to slow down any time soon – and the web isn’t going to stop being the most dangerous threat vector.
Put simply, the more your corporate infrastructure grows and changes, the harder it becomes to control every endpoint, and what employees should and can do in the corporate network.
But you don‘t need to despair yet. There are ways to get business security right:
- Get visibility into the current state of your security: So you can see your current security status and plan based on data.
- Scalability to secure your growing attack surface: So you can focus on the updates that matter most and ensure your systems’ performance levels don’t dip.
- Control over every endpoint: So you can make sure every user and endpoint is protected by similar, centrally managed configurations and policies.
Most important – it takes an IT security leader who’s empowered with the right technology to understand and protect every user and every endpoint. This way threat prevention can become a lot easier to manage.
The number of endpoints in your network won’t stop growing. Your users won’t stop using new apps or making old mistakes. And your attackers won’t stop finding new ways to breach your defenses. However, the easiest and most cost-efficient way to stop cyber-attacks is to stop them before they can enter your network.
So – if you’re going to protect your company, you’re going to need a smarter way to secure all your endpoints.
