The increasing digital connectivity and the
automation of virtually all processes in the world of business throughout the
whole value chain have led to the creation of agility. This has also led to the
development of extremely high levels of threat and significantly raised
the risk of cyber security.
It is a well-known fact that passwords and
usernames used by a majority of data users are weak. This has exerted pressure
on experts of systems security to come up with authentication methods that are
more secure. One of the ways that has been used is the development of user
hardware authentication.
The tech company Intel has built on previous
experiences and mistakes and dedicated a portion of the processor for security
reasons to make a device part of the entire process of authentication.
The cloud is set to have a
significant impact on the transformation of systems security technology. There
will be more approaches to information systems security that will be developed
for use in the cloud. Techniques for on-premise data storage will be migrated
to the cloud. Components such as virtualized intrusion detection and
prevention systems, virtualized firewalls and virtualized systems security will
now be used from the cloud as opposed to the traditional forms.
Some technologies are encompassed in deep
learning, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence. There is a
significant deal of interest for purposes of systems security in these
technologies.
Deep learning, just like behaviour analytics,
focuses on anomalous behaviour. Whenever AI and machine learning systems are
fed with the right data regarding potential systems security threats, they can
make decisions on how to prevent hacks depending on their immediate environment without
any human input.
The system scrutinizes entities instead of
users that have access to the information system. Business organizations and
government agencies can now be able to stamp out any persistent or advanced
cyber threats using artificial intelligence and machine learning.
As you can see, attacks can come from any
loose end. It is important to keep up with the latest technologies as to not
only stay updated but safe, as well.
