Endpoint security issues

摘要

Technological innovations have simplified data storage and access problems largely. The adoption of technologies by businesses that drive them to higher planes is at an all time high. Nowadays, businesses are moving towards virtualization for seamless integration of data and saving costs and resources. Portable communication and storage devices are not only being adopted by the tech savvy executives, but have also become an integral part of the IT architecture. Today's businesses demand for real time access to data spread across multiple sources has driven users to adapt and adopt the latest technologies. The use of such portable storage devices pose a huge security risk to networks at the End Points and securing these End Points has become a major area of concern for IT Security implementers in Corporate as well as Small and Medium Enterprises. To ensure security from all types of threats, enterprises need to incorporate measures that can provide complete protection from Internal as well as External threats. In such scenarios, the perimeter level security alone does not provide foolproof security to the network.
