siliconindia | | September 20178hese are challenging times for security leaders. Business pressures require faster processing of more data, and support for more devices than ever before. Critical data that used to be housed in a secured datacenter now moves across an increasingly complex ecosystem of networked environments, including IoT, cloud, mobile devices and workers, and virtualized networks. The rate of change in some environments is so rapid that many organizations simply can't keep up. A recent Forrester survey of 342 security leaders found that the largest cybersecurity challenge for CISOs is adapting to `the rapidly evolving nature of cyber threats'. This is followed by the need to secure cloud workloads and services, and having to manage and secure their increasingly complex IT environment.With these concerns, it's no wonder that the top priority for CISOs is improving operational efficiency. But where do you start? Do you load more security products onto an already overburdened IT staff? Because the survey shows that organizations that have never reported a security breach have adopted ten to twenty-five percent more security tools than those who have been recently compromised. But that strategy is difficult to maintain, especially when organizations are also dealing with a growing shortage of skilled cyber security professionals. Isolated security products need a lot of attention, and a lack of integration with other devices and management tools means that your team will need to spend a lot of time orchestrating policies and hand correlating threat data.TIN MY OPINIONGAUGE YOUR NETWORK'S THREAT IQ WITH INTELLIGENCEFortinet is a network security solutions company offering firewalls, security gateways, and subscription services, delivering a high level of network, content and application security to telecommunication providers, managed service providers, and many more.By Rajesh Maurya, Regional VP - India & SAARC, FortinetRajesh Maurya
