The advancement of technology brings about an environment that is prone to attacks and
propels companies to identify the best tools to secure their assets. Specifically as cybersecurity is
evolving and it is becoming more valuable to organizations to understand how it could affect
them. Although there is a wide assortment of security tools, products and services to invest in, it
is still difficult to identify the most beneficial security measures for a firm because security is
dynamic. The article illustrates a multifaceted perspective to explain the major security trends of
2014. It specifically describes how the past will impact the future and the relationship between
business and technology. The article then emphasizes four key technology predicted trends …show more content…
The next trend that was supply chain integrity which is sought to be a significant because
much of the supply chain has been moved abroad and especially after incidents like the revealing
advanced persistant threat report. IT supply chain integrity issues are growing more complex as
IT systems are assembled from a large number of geographically diverse providers (Gartner,
2012). To mitigate this issue of equipment being constructed with back doors, malware and other
vulnerabilities, proposed legistlation has been suggested. The legistlation proposes that testing
be perfomred on products produced abroad and if anything is revealed suspicious it can be
rejected. The overall, prediction is that by 2020 consumer product manufacturers will be libale
by a national government for security vulnerabilities in its product. With increasing globalization
and competition this has been predicted to occur.
The last predicted trend was the Internet of Things—Everything (IoE). We are moving
from an era of Internet of Things where devices are connected to the Internet of Everything.
