Confronting the Challenges of Network Security But what does that evolution entail? What can we do to confront these challenges? 1. Expand visibility You can't manage what you can't see, but for large hybrid-cloud networks, it’s a problem of scale. We know adding every individual network component to our monitoring systems is cumbersome, time- and code-intensive. Automation offers a better way to discover your network and security policies and configurations. 2. Capture subject matter experts’ knowledge Nothing could ever match the creativity of human problem solving, not even AI. But why wait months or years nurturing AI to learn your network when unmatched expertise already resides in house? But, where humans come up short is efficiency, speed, and knowledge sharing across all levels of IT. The few experts an organization has are not available 24x7 and are stretched thin with other projects. A better way would be to capture troubleshooting experience so everyone can benefit from the steps and actions that expert took to resolve that issue, or a similar one. 3. Sharing knowledge across the organization When knowledge is harnessed, it can be leveraged by anyone to democratize operations at scale, reducing repetitive work and expediting troubleshooting. The ability to capture incidents and share and collaborate in real time reduces the need for escalations and hand- offs. Security Across the Hybrid Network | 4
