Conclusion
Security is now a business issue, not just a technology issue. Security has moved from an IT discussion to a boardroom discussion, yet there is still a reliance on the technical team to “make the business secure.”
It’s no longer about the network perimeter. The adoption of mobile and cloud means you can no longer have a holistic view of your network perimeter security. Work is increasingly done outside of the corporate network which means loss of visibility of devices and locations trying to connect.
Remote working has become the new normal. It’s no longer just about maintaining remote access for a small portion of the organisation. Resources must be available 24x7 from anywhere, on any device.
“If large parts of your estate are no longer under your direct control, moving workloads to cloud may save you infrastructure cost,” says Donal Munnelly of BT Ireland. “But that brings with it a whole new set of security issues.”
