Additional information
Attackers are targeting companies of every size in the hope of gaining access to valuable assets inside the corporate network. Vertical industries need to know what hackers are after and understand the unique strategies they employ.
Banking and Financial organisations should bolster their networks against ‘land-and -expand’ strategies with the predominant use of Trojans. Deploying security platforms like Fortinet’s Advanced Threat Protection framework can combat sophisticated new variants of Malware at the network edge, while implementing internal network segmentation can help contain insider threats and minimise risk to your most valuable Data.
Education security professionals should be mindful of the various devices that can access their network resources, utilising threat intelligence like FortiGuard Mobile Malware services to detect threats that target student smartphones and tablets as vectors for an attack.
Healthcare industry protections closely mirror those of banking organisations. Understanding that hackers may be looking to encrypt their Data and hold the information hostage (instead of silently exporting said Data to sell on the dark web) makes it even more imperative for healthcare to consider internal segmentation strategies to contain threats.
Technology businesses are varied, and hackers respond with diverse strategies and Malware to cast the largest net. Security professionals in these organisations need to understand the devices, applications and platforms that connect to the web using analysis tools like FortiAnalyzer. Understanding their network utilisation will help businesses tailor a security posture that matches their individual attack surface.
