The cyber threat window is shrinking

This year’s major breach and threat research points the same way. Attackers are moving in minutes and breaches that take months to contain are costing more than ever.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month was introduced by the U.S. Federal Government in October 2004. The
Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) lead
a collaborative effort between government and industry to raise cybersecurity awareness around the world.

Solving the Distributed Edge Security Problem

Enterprise operations have moved well beyond the data center. Branches, remote workers and IoT devices now sit at the edge of the network and securing that infrastructure requires a fundamentally different approach than what most organizations have in place.

Download The IT and Security Leader’s Guide to Securing the Distributed Edge for guidance on building a stronger edge security posture: connecting people to applications across distributed locations, extending centralized control across global infrastructure and simplifying IT operations without introducing new exposure.

The GTT secure networking portfolio starts with SD-WAN.

SD-WAN technology has real-time network traffic management, centrally managed, user-defined control policies,
and the separation of applications from underlying network infrastructure via a cloud-enabled, policy-based overlay
which enables advanced security postures.

Watch our customer stories for real-life examples of the benefits of SD-WAN from GTT customer Barry Callebaut.
