Buzz words always amaze me. I love them if I think I coined them I love them until I think they are old and tired, but no matter what they seem to have a life of their own. Business transformation and Digital business transformation are a very hot topic these days in the enterprise space, but what does Digital Business Transformation really mean:
- Mobile first and cloud-enabled
- Collaboration requirements include always on, with seamless access anywhere and anytime, 24/7
- Digitally connected supply chains for highly responsive or just-in-time production
- Hyper-connected and complex business applications that are iPhone easy to use
- Internet of Things and Big Data driving real-time data decision streams and massive data volumes
What are the implications of the Digital Business Transformation on the cyber security imperative:
- Cloud technology and 24/7 mobile has made the digital business infrastructure borderless, firewalls and perimeter security have become less relevant, not less important, but simply not enough
- Business applications are more connected and complex than ever, flipping from your enterprise app to an iPhone app is the expected workflow and needs to be seamless and secure
- Cyber security is a board-level focus from the SME to the Fortune 500, hyper-attention to security in the hyper-connected world
- Security best practices are evolving rapidly, new and very advanced threats are constantly emerging
- It is essential to secure the app and the data directly
