The perception of IT security has evolved significantly over the years, from single-product perimeter-based security to an integrated approach of security processes necessary to plan, assess, build, and manage secure network infrastructures and comprehensive security programs. Security threats have evolved beyond the perimeter-based attacks, as the workforce has become increasingly mobile and the enterprise has been extended. Single security products such as antivirus and firewall systems can no longer provide protection for a complex corporate infrastructure. Companies are looking to integrate security into the broader IT infrastructure by assessing their security architectures, implementing the right policies, securing all layers of technology, and cutting operational costs by outsourcing management of their security infrastructure.
