Companies successfully integrating the internet of things (IoT) into their business models are realizing huge benefits for their processes, employees and customers.

As IoT adoption grows, however, it’s posing new security challenges for network and security teams alike. Conventional network perimeter defenses are simply not equipped to address the security challenges emerging with the surge of IoT devices.

Beyond that, most IoT security solutions fall short of addressing the entirety of IoT challenges.

Today, IoT devices account for more than 30% of all network-connected enterprise endpoints. It’s time for CISOs and security leaders to consider a complete IoT “lifecycle approach” to create an IoT security posture that reliably enables IoT and protects the network from new and unknown threats. The lifecycle approach encompasses the five critical stages of IoT security.

Read the e-book, The 5 Must-Haves for Best-in-Class IoT Security, to learn about the current state of enterprise IoT adoption, unique challenges to security teams and the five key stages in the lifecycle of a best-in-class IoT security solution.
