Oracle: “The evolution of IoT has further expanded the threat landscape”

Rising security threats, expanding compliance requirements, consolidation, and cloud computing are just a few of the reasons why data security has become critical. Stolen client devices, including tablets and Smartphone’s, have the potential to easily expose sensitive information as users move beyond the laptop. Outsourcing, off-shoring, corporate mergers, and nearly continuous organizational change create additional risks by making it easier for malicious insiders to obtain sensitive data and for outside hackers to gain access to servers using social engineering attacks. In an interaction with DQChannels, Sundar Ram, Vice President, Technology Sales Consulting Oracle Corporation, Asia Pacific explains why centralized and efficient protection of sensitive data regardless of the applications being used is more important than ever.
