Business Benefits of Security
Technologies Today
This is NOT about bits and bytes
NOT just Firewalls and Anti-Virus.

This is about Business


Layers of security architecture results in available applications

efforts .
Increased Productivity for the IT staff and Business Worker
Summary
• Build a business infrastructure for productivity and
competitive advantage once !!(not rebuilding it every
time you get hacked or infected)
• Clients and application anywhere , anytime
• Reduce Administration
• Faster deployment
• Cost Saving
• Business Impact
Layer the threat defense in each piece of the network !!
Don’t make it easy for penetration .
