Better, more robust cybersecurity is not a new need for today's digital organizations; it's a perennial one. What's new are the particular challenges these organizations face due to the advent of AI technologies and hybrid work models, among other changes. Such realities call for not just new tools but new ways of thinking. Securing modern businesses is a matter of staying updated on the latest threats, updating tools and looking at security from the attacker's perspective.
