Evolving Cybersecurity in the Current Security Landscape

Companies looking to preserve sensitive data may be using some of the most standard security practices, and while these methods are necessary for a complete cybersecurity strategy, more is needed. While once these toolkits may have succeeded in stopping cyber-attacks, today, it just isn’t the case. Cyber-criminals have updated their infiltration methods to steal and extort data, but our security toolkits have stayed the same.
