Security and compliance silos are rapidly breaking down as security breaches and compliance issues come to the fore. Vendors and IT departments are finding ways to integrate IT security and IT operations. “What we need is a fundamental shift,” says John Thompson, chairman of Symantec. “We need a risk-based approach that addresses data at rest and in motion,” says Thompson. Some vendors suggest that the links between silos can be made by integrating tools and processes bilaterally, without making a wholesale shift in the way the enterprise handles data.”]
