FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Data Protection
The concepts of defense in depth have been with us for years -- hundreds of years, if not thousands. Maybe we can learn something from those architects of warfare from the Middle Ages?

While security monitoring generates big data, in its raw form it remains only a means to an end. Ultimately, information security decision making should be based on prioritized, actionable insight derived from the data.
