Priorities in risk management regarding attack surfaces

How can organizations make their digital security investments more effective?

Emirhan Aşçı, General Market Sales Manager at Trend Micro, appeared as a guest on Wise TV to discuss the roadmap that organizations should follow in the face of today’s evolving cyber threats.

“My primary advice to organizations is to first gain a thorough understanding of their own infrastructure, define the scope accordingly, and only then proceed with investments. After all, when establishing security today, components such as perimeter security, endpoint security, and email security are essential requirements for almost every organization—these form the baseline of any security framework. However, in the current landscape, shifting toward a proactive security posture—addressing threats before they materialize—offers a significant advantage. Organizations are increasingly aligning their strategic visions with this approach; by analyzing their existing infrastructure and identifying the right, purpose-built technologies, they can greatly simplify their security operations.”

Taking the Right Steps in Security Investments

With the rapid acceleration of digitalization, security investments have become critically important for organizations. Yet, to ensure these investments are made effectively, organizations must first have a deep understanding of their own infrastructure. In this article, we will explore how to make security investments more impactful and what organizations should keep in mind throughout this process.

A Proactive Approach to Security

Traditional security measures are often reactive in nature. In contrast, adopting a proactive security approach today provides more effective protection against digital threats. This strategy enables the early detection of potential risks, allowing for preventive measures to be taken before an attack can occur.
