Laurence Pitt, Security Strategy Director at Juniper Networks asks how organisations can possibly deal with the shear volume of threats faced each month. He poses that while automation is an ideal method to combat automated malware threats, people also need to change their perception of the technology before it can be widely adopted. Instead of being seen as a threat to peoples jobs, Laurence points out that by automating simplistic tasks, security professionals can be freed up to focus on the more strategic elements of their role.
