"Over the past few years, mass adoption of new technologies and digital devices has created an even more fraught digital landscape for IT and security teams to co-manage. Work from anywhere (WFA) remains the norm - with employees choosing to regularly do business from a wide variety of locations across an even wider range of devices, and the threat landscape grows more relentless by the day."
"For the CISO or head of the security team, reducing the company's attack surface, limiting access privileges, or banning apps that might open their organization up to unnecessary, additional risks are likely to be core focus areas. While for the CIO or head of IT, ensuring employee productivity and finding new ways to drive innovation (often by adopting new tools and technologies) are typically top priorities."
Mass adoption of new technologies and a proliferation of digital devices have increased complexity for IT and security teams, especially with work from anywhere and diverse endpoints. The expanding threat landscape and remote work make securing organizations more difficult while preserving employee productivity. Security often prioritizes reducing attack surface, limiting access privileges, and banning risky apps. IT often prioritizes enabling productivity and adopting new tools to drive innovation. Collaboration and simplified internal communication between IT and security are essential to resolve friction from competing priorities and to scale thoughtfully and resiliently.
