Entreprises are shifting their focus from the perimeter to securing the actual data itself.
As organisations continue to embrace digital transformation, greater amounts of sensitive data are created, stored and transferred in digital form putting more data at risk. Today, the vast majority of enterprises (94%) are using sensitive data in cloud, big data, IoT or mobile environments. Just a few years ago the network perimeter were the four walls surrounding the corporate enterprise, with the emergence of these transformative technologies the perimeter has become dynamic and ever changing. Entreprises are shifting their focus from the perimeter to securing the actual data itself, no matter where it resides.
Securing data in the digital transformation era has become one of the most serious business risks. Thales e-Security’s Data Threat Report found that the top motivations for IT security spending included cloud migration at (39%) which tied with the desire to avoid data breach penalties (39%) and was closely followed by compliance (37%). As organizations move to the cloud, it is critical that they consider new security measures to protect their data.
