SecOps teams are learning a valuable lesson: when you can't physically get onsite to make changes and upgrades to security infrastructure, your ability to deal with security threats slows significantly, and cyber defense agility is greatly reduced.
With every day that passes during the current pandemic, the lack of cyber defense agility and lack of visibility into what goes on across a network is one of the biggest cybersecurity issues.
What can organizations do to improve cyber defense agility for the next lockdown?
With the current, hardware-based approach to security being such a roadblock to enterprise cybersecurity agility, companies are in a perfect position to address gaps in the current approach to achieve better network visibility, security and agility in the future.
The only way to maintain both the visibility of the network and the agility to detect and deal with issues is to virtualize security tools.
