About this webinar:
As cyber threats continue increase in frequency and complexity, compounded by remote working and ever evolving infrastructure estates, IT leaders must constantly assess whether their security stack is fit for purpose. However, past Computing research tells us there is often an incumbency bias amongst decision makers when it comes to their security solutions – a worrying ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ mentality. Of course, if it does break, the damage may well already be done.
Modern enterprises in the post pandemic world must also rapidly execute software innovations to their digital customer-facing services to remain competitive – or face losing business. This pressure drives a temptation to move at speed, often at the expense of effective security. At the same time, supply chain security challenges are increasing through additional entry points into the business by doing business with more partners than ever.
In this computing web seminar, we reveal enterprises’ biggest challenges when it comes to application security, and discuss best practise for mitigating risks – including network security and application vulnerability testing, and threat intelligence. We’ll also answer key questions around making the most of a limited cyber security budget by strengthening your existing tools.
