What is a Cyber Security Architecture?

Why is a cyber security architecture needed?

A cyber security architecture is the foundation of an organization’s defense against cyber threats, and ensures that all components of its IT infrastructure are protected. Environments that are secured by a cyber security architecture include:

• 雲端
• Networks
• 物聯網
• Endpoints
• Mobile

When a cyber security architecture adheres to all seven principles of the Zero Trust security model (devices, people, data, networks, workload, automation & orchestration, visibility & analytics) an enterprise can secure data and IT resources wherever they reside.

跨各 IT 基礎架構的防護

Pre-emptive threat prevention technology is the key to a modern cyber security architecture blocking sophisticated attacks before damage can be inflicted. An organization needs to be able to predict and block unknown malware, as well as known malware, to deliver consistent protection across the entire IT infrastructure.

Small business and large enterprises should adopt a consolidated cyber security architecture to protect their most critical assets from advanced cyber attacks.

A holistic approach for creating a cyber security architecture

By employing dozens of vendors’ point security solutions organizations inadvertently create a patchwork security architecture. The added complexity potentially undermines an organization’s overall security and results in a higher TCO. By taking a holistic approach to building a cyber security architecture, organizations can close security gaps, reduce risk, and increase operational efficiency. This multi-layered, holistic approach to cyber security is referred to as a consolidated security architecture.
