CIO for Transaction Services Group,
praises the technology for providing
visibility of vulnerabilities in the network
and on company devices. He said:
“Unless you have visibility, you can’t
make informed decisions. We needed
to understand where to best spend our
budget and where the risk was that
needed to be mitigated.”
Privileged access accounts, he said,
are what the attackers are really trying
to get to as they are then able to
traverse the network and identify the
information they want to manipulate.
That’s why it’s so important to secure
privileged accounts first as they are the
‘top of the pyramid’.
“Having single reporting frameworks and
reducing your technology complexity
helps you get the best bang for your buck
as far as time is concerned,”
