Cybersecurity
The Cybersecurity Knowledge Hub: Foundations of Enterprise Defense
Cybersecurity is the strategic practice of protecting systems, networks, and sensitive data from digital attacks, unauthorized access, and persistent threats. In the modern enterprise, defense has evolved beyond static firewalls to a Zero Trust model, leveraging ephemeral sessions and just-in-time access to eliminate the persistent attack surface and ensure that sensitive information remains secure in a volatile threat landscape.
