Here are five things I recommend security pros keep in mind when navigating the line between tight security and keeping the organization running at peak proficiency.

Predictive security narrows the scope considerably and helps IT and security pros zero-in on the most likely vulnerabilities and areas most-at-risk due to the sensitive nature of the data they hold.

Without putting vulnerabilities into the context of the risk associated with them, organizations often misalign their remediation resources.

The best way to anticipate a move by an adversary is to put yourself in their position and ask, what would I do in the same situation? Studying the ways in which you would attack a given situation provides a strategic advantage when planning your defense.
