Abstract

The foundation of cybersecurity defense has been muddied by point solutions, false promises, and “bolt-on” solutions that extend the value of a given technology based on a specific need. After all, if we each count the number of security solutions we have implemented, from antivirus and firewalls to security monitoring and single sign-on solutions, we will typically find dozens of vendors and hundreds of individual solutions throughout an organization. The average user or executive is not aware of most of the cybersecurity technology stack they depend upon, even though they may interact with most of it on a daily basis.
