How many times have you heard of security referred to as the naysayers of your organization? The typical security team historically accomplished their goals by saying 'No' to anything beyond the bare minimum required for people to do their jobs. Consequently, we can be seen as a simple cost center that provides just enough value to justify our presence.

This is no longer the case. The rise of cybercrime has necessitated an increased investment in security to manage risk and enable efficient processes. While the security team's reputation has improved, we still have a way to go. By working to close this reputational gap, we can establish security as a critical partner and effective multiplier in the pursuit of accomplishing your organization's mission.
