Today, I was able to join Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella in Washington, D.C., where he delivered a keynote that highlighted the need for a new approach to security. He shared how Microsoft uses its unique insight into the threat landscape to help better protect customers, and showcased how Microsoft technologies work in tandem with each other, and with solutions from the security ecosystem, to deliver a holistic, agile, security platform for today’s enterprise.
New approach
In our mobile-first, cloud-first world, employees work on corporate applications and access sensitive data from on-premises and cloud-based systems using every type of device from laptops to BYO devices to IoT sensors. While there is an immense opportunity for enterprises and individuals to derive personal and professional value from today’s connected technologies, there is a corresponding growth in risk as people increase their exposure to cyber security threats. While security has always been a focus for Microsoft, we recognize that the digital world in which we live requires a new approach to how we Protect, Detect and Respond to security threats.
