From Blocker to Enabler: How Converged Cloud Security Platforms Make Life Easier

Rapidly shifting organizations to a remote workforce kept the lights on and made IT Security the hero. Yet, there’s a cheque to pay – the patchwork of products stood up to secure this environment created complexity. Complexity creates security gaps, over-burdens IT with fragmented visibility, inconsistent data for analysis and high false positives. All of this results in less effective security and a disrupted workforce as they try to drive the business forward. Let’s simplify it! In this session, we look at the evolving security technologies designed to address today’s work environment that make it easier for IT and the workforce to do their jobs. We will cover: - Zero trust: more than a theory; it’s now the foundation for today’s security platforms. - Putting data at the center: identifying key use cases where data risk occurs – and how to mitigate it without stopping productivity. - Helping security IT: identifying the technical challenges that make their life harder than it needs to be. - Security service edge (SSE): exploring Gartner’s new converged security platform category where the disparate products we know today can be delivered as modular services
