EMA Network Security Survey and Recommendations
2 likes1,202 views
The 2017 network security survey reveals that many enterprises are not inspecting live network traffic, leading to increased vulnerabilities, with 14% experiencing attacks. Significant upgrades in security tools and infrastructure are needed to keep pace with the expected tripling of IP traffic in the next five years, while IT budgets are on the rise to enhance security measures. Recommendations include improving visibility through security fabric deployments and optimizing tool usage to enhance productivity amidst a notable skills gap in security management.
