• Todays targeted attacks require a multi-layered approach– where data between the endpoints, web and
messaging gateways, and data center is protected.
• Advanced targeted attacks also require fast detection– accurate detection, analysis, and rapid remediation is
key. A solution combineing global threat intelligence, fine-tuned correlation of attack activity across network and endpoint, and
tightly integrated endpoint protection is ideal.
• Secure devices– only legitimate users should be granted access to corporate assets. A strong two-factor authentication
solution is a best practice.
• Ultimately the data itself must be secured wherever it lives– encryption, mobile management, and data loss
prevention solutions are essential components of an end-to-end security strategy.
