Data Security for the Way People Work

Data security is at the top of the priority list for most organizations, as well it should be. Threats have never been more numerous, more varied or more dangerous. Phishing attacks, malware, ransomware, BIOS attacks and advanced persistent threats (APTs) are multiplying relentlessly (see sidebar). The dangers of data loss, extortion and identity theft are real. The global average cost of a data breach is $3.62 million USD, according to Ponemon Institute.

In this challenging climate, IT leaders must implement security strategies that keep data safe while enabling productivity and collaboration without compromising the user experience. Security policies and solutions that are cumbersome, such as complex and arduous authentication methods or lengthy virus scans, will discourage employees from using their devices – or will lead them to circumvent the security measures entirely. In fact, 41% of employees say they will go around security methods that get in their way.

That perspective stems from the realities on the ground, where these companies lack the large, dedicated security teams that are common in enterprises. Mid-market businesses also typically lack the sophisticated internal security systems and controls present at larger organizations to ward off threats.

Security leaders have been in front of boards and executive committees long enough to know that security metrics that simply portray statistics from monitoring tools, or count the number of malware attacks, have relatively no value for those executives who drive corporate strategy and budgets.

Today’s security environment is becoming more complex and difficult to manage. Businesses are struggling to source talented employees.

Three Initiatives that Drive Up Infrastructure and Storage Value

As decision makers and architects grapple with these issues, they face demands on a number of fronts.
