Executive Overview
While digital acceleration delivers many benefits, such as reduced costs, faster growth, and better user experience, it has also led to a rapid expansion of attack surfaces and new network edges. These include the local area network (LAN), the wide area network (WAN), 5G, remote workers, and clouds.
The overarching challenge of digital acceleration is that rapid IT changes often result in new vulnerabilities, which are outpacing the security team’s ability to protect them from cyberthreats.
Networks today are the center of innovation and enable digital acceleration using network modernization. Adopting a secure networking strategy helps fortify organizations so they can be safe and successful in their digital acceleration efforts
