Organizations are challenged to address these threats quickly, effectively, and cost-efficiently. The way to do this is to rethink cybersecurity: from a reactive defense function to an enabling and accelerating function for progress and innovation. It is only through this mindset shift of cybersecurity that companies can differentiate themselves from their competitors and generate decisive advantages.
