Connectivity with complete security

Today, super-fast connections enable organisations to offer rich experiences to employees, customers and communities. But this connectedness – deliberately or accidentally – is leading to a huge rise in cyber security risks:

  • Nearly 70% of large UK organisations were breached or attacked in the last 12 months1
  • 64% of businesses doubt they can prevent a mobile cyber attack2
  • 30 billion IoT sensors will be in use within five years, and everyone is a potential entry point for cyber criminals3

Today’s organisations need to plan for the worst, and assume a security breach is a real possibility.

What does this mean for you?

Embrace the potential of hyper-connectivity to deliver better experiences like unconstrained mobile working, effortless collaboration, real-time messaging and more.
But make sure everyone enjoys these experiences safely, without exposure to multiple complex cyber security threats.
