Traditionally, network security works by allotting a set of trusted individuals access to a system via username and password. This approached was sufficient when all users remained inside the organization’s firewall, but this is no longer the case. As more and more organizations have migrated to cloud computing in the past few years, it has changed how we think about computing and security. With mobile devices and intangible databases, there is no longer a hard perimeter to keep users and information in. Furthermore, more people need access to your network than ever before, including contractors, customers, partners, consultants, and managed service providers (MSPs). These individuals may not be direct employees of your organization, but they need network access all the same. As a result, organizations have had to alter how they defend and secure company data.
