TEC37 Security Series E05: Top Considerations When Building Your Security Architecture

Event Overview

In this TEC37 encore, we explore the role security architecture plays in an overall cybersecurity strategy. Historically, investments in security have been driven by the features and functionality of point products, leaving the average enterprise with around 100 unique security products in its environment. Organizations trying to secure a global remote workforce need a smarter, more integrated approach. Join host Robb Boyd as he speaks with WWT's Chris Konrad, Senior Director of Security for Global Accounts, Kent Noyes, Distinguished Security Architect, and Mark Wall, Senior Practice Manager for Automation and Application Services. They'll discuss what's needed for security architecture to meet today's business drivers and keep projects on track.
