Market Momentum

"Although enterprises are generally more prepared for cyber threats than small businesses, the number of data breaches affecting large companies is still high," said Michael Fimin, CEO and co-founder of Netwrix. "Culprits tend to take advantage of complicated IT infrastructures of large companies, that have a lot of active users continuously accessing critical systems and sensitive data. To ensure security and prevent data breaches enterprises need to establish rigorous control over security changes and data access, as well as gain complete visibility into user behavior across all levels of IT environment."
