The latest advanced threats take advantage of the flat and open internal network. Once they get past traditional firewall defenses at the perimeter, it’s very easy for them to spread and extract valuable trade secrets and sensitive data.

Download the “Protecting Your Network from the Inside Out” white paper, which details the emergence of a new class of firewall that helps address this critical security gap—the Internal Segmentation Firewall (ISFW). Deployed at key strategic points in the network, it identifies and contains threats before they spread.

ISFWs can be deployed rapidly with minimum disruption while keeping up with the multi­-gigabit speeds of internal networks. They offer instant visibility and critical protection that can protect internal data/assets if a threat gets past the perimeter.

The combination of cloud technologies and ever-­increasing worker mobility have required firewalls to expand their reach from securing applications and network traffic to address the entire broad and complex threat surface.

Gartner’s paper­ One Brand of Firewall is a Best Practice for Most Enterprises­ details research that enables you to learn more about the importance of a unified security posture:

• Reducing complexity through consolidated management
• Increasing security effectiveness with deeper levels of inspection
• Automating threat remediation and accelerating response times

The risk of a breach is growing rapidly due to more devises and more applications hitting your infrastructure. We asked security experts about their biggest concerns for advanced persistent threats and application based attacks.

Two Security experts reveal their challenges and share advice on advance persistent threats. Read what they have to say about:

• The importance of including security professionals at early stages of your IT projects
• The best protection against threats (hint: early detection and rapid response)

The rise of BYOD and the Internet of Things (IoT) are bringing new flexibility and functionality to organizations of all sizes ­ and unfortunately, also new Wi­Fi vulnerabilities and attack vectors that put critical assets within your network at risk.

Download Wireless Defense Strategies in the IoT Era to learn how critical it is to deploy more integrated security at the access layer for comprehensive protection that spans the full breadth of the network.

Regardless of an organization’s security maturity model, when the growing level of sophisticated attackers and threats collide with the ever evolving and expanding network environment, a multifaceted defense approach is no longer a luxury, but a necessity.

This white paper -­ Countering Evolving Cyber Threats­ - outlines clear prioritization of solutions and the key areas that should be addressed in order to minimize the impact of potential threats while filling in the gaps that span across all the access vectors.

Increasing the strength of your company’s defense against the latest persistent threats means providing coverage across the entire attack chain: prevention, detection and mitigation. This checklist will help you assess your current Advanced Threat Protection solution needs through a baseline set of requirements, including:

• Environment coverage
• Mix of security technologies
• Integration and automation capabilities
