Security Risk
"It's possible to have a vulnerability exploited for months that customer didn't even know was there. That's what scares them the most. They want to increase visibility into their networks and identify their points of vulnerability."

With this knowledge companies should be running to purchase security solutions. What companies fail to factor in is that it costs more money to be reactive - fix problems after they occur, than to be proactive and implement preventive measures. The risks increases exponentially after problems occur.

Re: Visibility & Vulnerability
Exactly. We have to be able to see what went wrong and make sure that we don’t have any more problems with it. Failing is a great learning process.

Re: Visibility & Vulnerability
Yes, certainly those experiences are helpful if analyzed and used right. We need to identify gaps that contributed for a failed attempt and start thinking about how to fill that gap to prevent the same experience to repeat.

Re: Visibility & Vulnerability
Definitely! Failed attempts will help a business learn more than successes. It’s important to know what not to do too.

@dlr5288:

Absolutely, try out something new is very important. And not every attempt may end up with good results, but surely would leave good experieces and lot of lessons learnt. And all that would become good basis for future attemts. Consumers get to see all of that.

Re: Visibility & Vulnerability
Agreed. I don’t think all their new trials will be successful. But at least they’re trying and doing something others aren’t. That speaks well with consumers.

Yes, no doubts that AT&T is growing and has room even further...so can try various things, may not necessarily succeed in all. Atlease they are trying and most importantly customers buy in that and would stick on. I believe that is true because of the role customer service plays in retention.

Re: Visibility & Vulnerability
That’s very true. I hope there can be some sort of compromise with security and the Cloud and we can have a happy medium.

Re: Visibility & Vulnerability
@dlr5288 You are absolutely right. My only concern is they will eventually stretch themselves too thin with what they are doing and someone (or something) somewhere will drop the ball and cause a security concern.
