Leadership Brief
Work from home, bring your own device, a professional cyber-crime industry, IoT & OT. We all have to face these challenges while fullfilling a zoo of endless requirements.

1 Executive Summary

2020 has taught us three things: we have to invest into end-to-end digitalization, we have to invest into a flexible and robust security infrastructure, and we have to be resilient and robust in the way we work. Honestly, is this really something we didn’t know before? KuppingerCole could have written these three statements last year, and 2018, too. So, what leads us to this statement now? In the end only the fact that these gaps were painfully demonstrated to all of us.

This causes the company to have no central overview of which services, which devices, and which applications are used and for what purpose.
