What do they do to bolster their companies\u2019 solution offerings?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In enterprise C-suites, the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) handles both the technological needs of the business and research and development. Departmentally, the CTO leads the technology or engineering departments. In other words, the CTO manages vast strategic responsibilities in terms of investments and achieving objectives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As such, the CTO often leads their company&#8217;s product development. Additionally, because they work so much with proprietary technology, a CTO must demonstrate familiarity with intellectual property issues such as patent law. Ideally, they should also remain keenly aware of compliance and other regulatory requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><div class=\"widget\"><div class=\"aside-card\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><p><a class=\"#\" href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/endpoint-security\/free-endpoint-protection-buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1682\" src=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/endpoint-security\/files\/2019\/01\/endpoint-security-speedbump-cta.jpg\" alt=\"Download Link to Endpoint Security Buyer's Guide\" width=\"800\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Few industries demand as much from their CTO as cybersecurity. Further, few branches of cybersecurity demand as much as endpoint security. With the advent of cloud technologies and evolving digital threats, enterprises now operate with increasingly porous digital perimeters. Simultaneously, hackers continue to refine their malware attacks to bypass legacy detection capabilities.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Therefore, <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/endpoint-security\/free-endpoint-protection-buyers-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">endpoint security<\/a> must embrace continual innovation and evolution to keep up with external threat actors. Languishing for even a moment too long can open enterprises up to security holes and zero-day attacks. Their CTOs need to stay at the top of their game, demonstrating intelligence and perseverance while leading their solutions into the future.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To celebrate their achievements, we present our picks for the top 10 endpoint security CTOs of 2019.
