When asked to nominate the biggest source of stress for their organisation’s IT security team, most senior managers would point to cyber threats.
Teams are tasked with keeping intruders out of core infrastructure and digital assets safe. Because the threat landscape is constantly changing, this is a constantly challenging role.
