CISOs face the complex challenge of protecting organizations against an expanding array of cybersecurity risks. While the role requires constant adaptation to protect against new threats, CISOs often bear the blame when defenses are breached.

Today’s security products are evolving to meet the changing attack surface, each one targeting a specific set of risks. For organizations, this typically means that to increase security maturity, they need to implement a number of different solutions, and as the attack surface continues to expand, their tech stack quickly becomes difficult to manage. It’s time for the industry to help security teams achieve a better balance and reduce this operational burden.
