DescriptionUnited States Cybersecurity Magazine - Spring 2015 {Bindaredundat}  2014 taught us that massive security breaches are the new normal for U.S. companies, government agencies, and universities. Some of the most prominent were Target, Home Depot, Neiman Marcus, Apple's iCloud, Michaels, the U.S. Postal Service, the IRS, Community Health Services, UPS, Staples, the State Department, Sands Casinos, USIS, eBay, PF Chang’s, JP Morgan Chase, and, to sum up the year, Sony Pictures. The sobering reality is that it is now no longer a matter of if but when and how often that we’re going to be breached. In 2014, we witnessed CEOs being fired, CIOs let go, boards of directors personally sued, and company data stolen or sabotaged on a grand scale. What will the extent of the damage be to our company, shareholders, and customers? What are the bad actors really after? The data protection strategy on which most companies focus today is defending the “perimeter” or “castle walls.” This strategy has evolved over the past two decades with a collage of products to address an array of security issues. By definition, individual products have inherent limitations and quickly become obsolete. When mapping numerous vendors’ products together into a security solution, gaps in coverage appear. These gaps are further widened by the assault on access points by smartphones, apps, and pervasive free Wi-Fi. In 2014, we became painfully aware that the perimeter strategy is no longer effective.
