Cybersecurity considerations that transcend paradigm shifts

Before and after next-gen

Published March 2017

The concept of a paradigm shift has been used to frame the enormity of fundamental changes in IT and compute models, as has been the case with the web, the client-server model before it, and so on.

What is notable about today’s current state of computing is that there are multiple concurrent shifts, with more on the immediate horizon, all while IT and security professionals must still manage and secure legacy environments.

This paper explores the meta trends that make cybersecurity increasingly challenging and offers considerations for the evaluation of effective and operationally efficient security systems that can transcend paradigm shifts.
