The sheer amount of data and its interconnectedness in 2020—along with the determination of cybercriminals to devise with new ways to access it—will add up to trouble, cybersecurity experts warn.
Clayton Calvert, a consultant at netlogx, an IT security and risk assessment firm, says 2020 will provide “an ever-evolving threat landscape.”
“There is no such thing as complete security, so enterprises are adopting cyber resiliency in order to bounce back quickly from continuous security breaches,” Calvert says. He offers a number of ways that enterprises can be resilient.
One way is to combine machine learning and automation with visibility to fight cyberattacks, such as through the use of security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) products. “This type of machine learning helps reduce operational errors and helps enterprises self-manage, self-defend, and potentially self-heal against risks and breaches,” Calvert says. “Using technology such as SOAR reduces human error and enables IT teams to focus on other tasks necessary in the enterprise.”
Organizations that lean on a hybrid approach when it comes to using the cloud will mitigate some of the risks of…
