Security In Sync

Jude Pereira, MD, Nanjgel Solutions, says building a robust security strategy comes down to people, processes and technology.

Recent ransomware attacks such as WannaCry and NotPetya have further emphasised the need for resilient security measures within organisations. At the same time, it is not enough to simply have these solutions and procedures in place.

Nanjgel Solutions’ managing director Jude Pereira says it is imperative to ensure that the different security solutions also “talk to each other.”

He explains, “An organisation must have security from each aspect – network, data, application and user – in sync with each other and sharing information. This is not happening in today’s business environment. It is always about people, processes and technology when it comes to a sound security strategy.”

According to Pereira, despite deploying the best of firewalls, malware and endpoint security platforms, if all the components are not in sync, then the overall security strategy will definitely have loopholes, allowing adversaries to enter a firm’s network.
