Digitization is opening up new opportunities for business expansion. Cloud and IP are enabling service providers to deliver new services and impactful experiences with greater agility, less cost and flexibility. Interconnected devices are offering exciting new means to respond rapidly and deliver a truly exceptional experience anywhere at any time that you and your customers can benefit from. Although these new trends introduce new opportunities to service providers, it also presents new vulnerabilities and risks from hackers and cyber attacks.

New Trends Bring New Risks

Hackers are sophisticated, financially motivated and are increasingly launching new attacks that are hard to see and stop. The estimated industry time it takes companies to discover these attacks is between 100 and 200 days. The attacks are damaging for service providers resulting in business impact, service disruption and revenue loss.

The reality is, the occurrence of breaches is not slowing down any time soon. Just recently, a post-production media company has taken a direct hit which has negatively affected major cloud and IP based companies such as Netflix. In the mobility space, the T-Mobile breach resulted in massive theft of customer information. Customers take notice of which environments are safe and can offer impactful experiences.

It’s time to rethink security and how you can leverage it as a key business enabler to drive forward with your business outcomes.
