46% of organizations fear that they will lose market relevance if they do not pursue digital innovation.

Digital innovation (DI) initiatives are designed to improve a company’s efficiency and customer experience. However, this is often accomplished by deploying new systems and solutions, including Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, mobile devices, cloud computing, and new branch locations. These create additional security and operational complexities that open up an organization to new cyber risks.

DI initiatives provide organizations with a number of benefits but also have their costs in terms of infrastructure and security. New devices deployed as part of DI initiatives increase the complexity of network environments. This increased complexity creates new security challenges.

Thanks to this white paper by Fortinet, you will understand how evolving networks and threat ecosystems increase security complexity.
