Security – Network:
Businesses face a number of challenges as they try to keep their network infrastructure secure and operational. Potential threats include distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, network-based ransomware, insider threats and password attacks, to name a few.
Securing corporate networks, meanwhile, has become all the harder with the move to remote work and the increasing use of cloud applications.
