Axon Technologies offers a holistic approach to cybersecurity by considering the complete Threat Landscape and then scoping the solutions to fit. Axon can move forward with a predictive intelligence-driven and resilient cyber defense service customised to the organisation’s needs and goals.

There are inherent dangers with the cloud, it’s not yours to start with, and nothing around it is yours or in your control, overlooking that the improvements provided by the cloud are lower cost to operate and increased speed to deploy. As for AI and analytics, Cognitive Insight. The ability to use new data to make predictions to improve performance and in real-time detect patterns in vast volumes of data and interpret their meaning, such as fraud and other misuses.

The most significant change seen is that organisations have extended their attack surface outside of their control; the more cloud is used, the more points to attack are presented to Threat Actors, making their work easier.

On top of that, organisations send internal assets into end users’ homes, making an assault on them even more readily available. This extended attack surface includes remote access points VPN and portals. The increased volumes of breaches and attacks against them are now well documented.

Firstly, increased cyber hygiene; is an overlooked area responsible for the vast majority of attacks and breaches. The second area is to significantly increases visibility across all digital domains within the organisation. The more visibility granted; the greater security is increased. This visibility allows for better insights into business alignment, resulting in improved performance and attainable and deliverable goals back to the Board.

One of the most critical technologies needed is attack surface identification, commonly known as Digital Footing. This thinking is mirrored by companies such as Microsoft. They acquired the global attack surface identification and management leader to secure their accelerated digital transformation challenged by the increasing frequency of cyberattacks.

The more organisations move to a remote workforce, cloud, distributed cloud, and mesh cloud, the more they increase their attack surface. This increased threat space must be known, visible, managed, and kept current.
