We expect 2013 to be even more exciting based on the following Top 10 security challenges identified by AT&T Information security researchers and engineers. Let\u2019s review this list of challenges and evaluate how to reduce risks and protect the critical information that manages our business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Critical data includes the information needed to run network attached infrastructure as well as the intellectual property used to manage business and drive innovative solutions.<\/p>\n
We can expect to see a higher risk of business impacting threats with the shift from computer-based attacks, generating large number of lower bandwidth events, to virtual server or cloud-based attacks, generating ultra-high bandwidth events. With these new attack vectors it becomes even more beneficial to identify and mitigate large DDoS events while traffic is in the network cloud.<\/p>\n
