The danger of post-breach disruption and downtime is extremely real. And while we should work to prevent these breaches in the first place, we must also be practical and pre-empt any potential incidents. Organisations armed with the most extensive software-based cybersecurity protection today continue to fall prey to hackers, have their operations disrupted and struggle to overcome the loss of data and system corruption. And with more business assets moving to the cloud than ever before - we are just asking for it aren't we? The answer to this lies in advanced engineering at the hardware layer. Easily integrated into enterprise servers and data centers to provide full-stack protection across the entire life cycle of a potential attack.

Over the past two years, we’ve seen the degree of digital trust in our day-to-day lives being pushed to its limits due to the unintended consequences of innovation. From GenAI to IoT security to quantum computing, we will see a “crescendo of trust” that will push trust to its absolute limits. Here, we will focus on IoT/device trust.

Security needs to be everywhere a potential threat exists – from an IOT device to an OT device, a factory floor, an element of infrastructure, an oil rig, a robotic device or an MRT machine – Cisco recognized that with increased connection comes a greater risk than ever before and that you must bring the security to these workloads...not the other way around. In order to keep up with today’s sophisticated and expansive threat landscape, security can no longer be a fence; it needs to be embedded through the fabric of data centers, whether public or private. Cisco Hypershield does just that and gives defenders a fighting chance against adversaries, as now the industry has the advantage.
