The defense budget for Cybersecurity has been increasing over the past couple of years and currently the president has requested another 4% budget increase for 2019. Arguably, U.S. Military has enjoyed a technology advantage for many years. However, with vulnerabilities in current systems combined with unrelenting increases in cyber attacks and advance persistent threats, do we still enjoy a cyber techology advantage?
Current cyber security solutions offer myriad capabilities ranging from network security solution to endpoint security, application security, content security, and cloud security. These solutions have to be integrated together to better protect IT systems, data, and infrastructure from sophisticated threats. Additional layers of protection and analysis through network flow analysis, Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) a defense-in-depth posture.
