Companies have started to look into securing their data and have started planning to invest heavily from short term to long term. Every major provider is looking to innovate and coming up with the best possible solution to empower the enterprises to secure their networks from different cyber attacks. These attacks range from anywhere from malware, ransomware, phishing, hacks, viruses, worms etc. The most recent data breach of Capital One is one of the biggest data breaches ever!
