Protecting Your Business in an "Any to Any" World

Innovation never stops in the mobile world, and that rule applies to security threats as well. Network attacks are becoming more sophisticated and even high-tech businesses with the most advanced security may find themselves in the crosshairs as we shift to more devices and anywhere access.

Just a few weeks ago, multiple leading social networking and large enterprises were hit with an attack when their employees visited a known and trusted website focused on mobile application development.

This episode underscores how important security is in a more mobile, more connected world - attackers are paying attention, using these industry trends to create targeted and sophisticated attacks that can bypass traditional defenses. The Internet of Everything is taking shape, and the number of people and things going online is soaring. According to Gartner's Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends for 2013, 30 billion things will be connected by 2020.

And the things connecting will be more than PCs, tablets, and smart phones. Devices like intelligent sensors, healthcare equipment, and even utility systems will be getting online. According to the Cisco Visual Networking Index (VNI), machine-to-machine (M2M) connections will grow from 5 percent of all mobile connections to 17 percent in 2017.
