The Rise of Business-Driven Network Security

 Beyond the IT Department In the era of ubiquitous data and ever-evolving cyber threats, network security can no longer be relegated solely to the IT department. Businesses are witnessing a paradigm shift towards business-driven network security, where leadership actively participates in safeguarding their digital assets. This collaborative approach transcends departmental boundaries, fostering a more robust and holistic security posture. The Evolving Threat Landscape: Today’s cyber adversaries are more sophisticated and targeted than ever before. Ransomware attacks, data breaches, and phishing scams threaten not only sensitive information but also brand reputation and operational stability. These risks extend beyond technical vulnerabilities; they exploit human error and social engineering tactics. Addressing these challenges requires a multifaceted approach that goes beyond technical expertise. Integrating Security with Business Strategy A business-driven approach to network secu...

5 traits of Jeff Bezos that makes him an influential person.

 Amazon as a name is indicative of an entity that powers itself by its sheer size, volume, and diversity. Nothing stands in its way. Everything about it is mighty, be it in the form of a South American river which is said to push back the significantly vast Pacific Ocean with its sheer volume and speed when it meets it, or a mighty worldwide enterprise which is pushing and changing the very landscape of commerce, buying, selling, and servicing in ways unimaginable just a few years back.

While nature powers the river Amazon, it’s the acumen, foresight and daring on the part of Jeffrey Preston Bezos, 57, popularly known as Jeff Bezos, an American investor, industrialist, media baron and internet entrepreneur that powers Amazon, the conglomerate.

Under his able stewardship as the entity’s founder-CEO, so definingly successful has been the enterprise that the world today associates the name with just the enterprise, and not with the word’s hoary past. It has also made Bezos the richest individual according to established sources.

An enterprise they say is a reflection of the qualities of the person at its helm. It certainly holds for Jeff Bezos and his enterprise, Amazon. Both stand for success, ingenuity, and most of all, an out and out focus on customer needs be it in the present or foreseeable future, irrespective of the latter’s size or strategic worth. These besides, there are traits to Bezos’s personality that reflect on all the enterprise and endeavour he attempts. We mention some below.

Highly Competitive

There were others before Amazon but nobody these days even remembers them. Why? Because Jeff the dogged competitor quietly ate them for breakfast! And not a few but over a hundred! Yes, Jeff Bezos does not believe in competition! He believes he is there to be. And only him.

For this reason, from as early as 1998 when the world was very fresh to the idea of e-commerce to as late as January 2021, Jeff Bezos through Amazon has bought, bought, and bought some more. And what he can’t buy (whatever be the reason), he tries to invest in. Either ways, he staves competition and makes Amazon a Giant that’s only growing by the day.

Highly Generous

Decades back when Amazon entered the scene, it’s founder Bezos wasn’t known for philanthropy unlike some of his peer. But that has changed and he is today associated with some of the biggest charitable causes. Year 2011 saw him contribute USD 10 million towards Seattle’s Museum of History and Industry and then again bestowing a sum of USD 15 million to Princeton’s Neuroscience Institute. His defining moment came when in 2012, he donated USD 2.5 million to ‘United for Marriage’, a same-sex marriage initiative.
