7 TIPS FOR A STRONG DATA INFRASTRUCTURE

Digital transformation efforts - and the arrival of machine learning and other analytic tools that can extract new value from corporate data - are forcing companies to reevaluate information governance. Risk and efficiency are still key components of the conversation, but the climbing value of data, and stiff new fines for misuse or lax care of that data, is changing the fundamental calculus.

Digitalization, work from anywhere and cloud-based computing accelerated the need for a cloud-based security approach that enables anywhere, anytime access from any device. However, current network security architectures were designed with the enterprise data center as the focal point for access needs. Join this complimentary security & risk webinar as Gartner experts help you build a migration plan from legacy perimeter and hardware-based offerings to a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) model. You will find out how to implement software-defined and cloud-delivered security, forcing changes in security architecture and vendor selection.

Hyperconvergence is now common in every data center. However, with the explosion of applications that need to operate independent of the cloud, edge computing is the compute platform transforming how data is being handled, processed, and delivered from millions of devices worldwide. Now is the time to rethink our approach to HCI and the advantages it brings to edge computing.

As we can see from the global WannaCry ransomware attack, the risk of being hit by this type of malware is not a matter of “if”; it’s a matter of “when,” According to SonicWall research, ransomware attacks spiked 16,700% in just one year, from 4 million in 2015 to staggering 638 million in 2016. The good news is that there are ways to spot ransomware at an early stage and stop it from spreading through your environment.
