NetSecOps: Aligning Networking and Security Teams to Ensure Digital Transformation webinar

BOULDER, Colo. (PRWEB) October 12, 2021

Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), a leading IT and data management research and consulting firm, today announced it will host a research webinar titled “NetSecOps: Aligning Networking and Security Teams to Ensure Digital Transformation,” featuring Shamus McGillicuddy, vice president of research covering network management at EMA.

Network infrastructure and operations teams and information security teams are not natural partners, but they need to learn how to be. Today, 75% of enterprises have seen an increase in the amount of collaboration that takes place between the network teams and security teams. Unfortunately, only 39% of enterprises have been fully successful with efforts to improve collaboration between these teams.

Based on one-on-one interviews and an online survey of more than 350 technology professionals, this new EMA research reveals that successful NetSecOps collaboration will be essential to digital transformation. The vast majority of enterprises revealed to EMA that public cloud, work-from-anywhere, data center modernization, and the internet of things are all driving the need for their network and security teams to work together.

During this webinar, McGillicuddy will share insights from this research, including:

• Why 83% of technology professionals say the security team’s need to examine network data is leading to more collaboration between networking and security groups
• How automation enables better collaboration between networking and security
• How network management tools are supporting these partnerships
• Why some enterprises fail to align networking and security teams, even when CIOs and CISOs make it a priority

This independent research was sponsored by cPacket, EfficientIP, Endace, F5, LiveAction, NetScout, and Riverbed.

The webinar is Tuesday, October 19 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern. Registration is available at https://info.enterprisemanagement.com/netsecops-research-webinar-pr
