Cybersecurity Is a Team Sport: Defending Business
Operations Through a Collective Defense Strategy
By Craig Harber, Security Evangelist, Open Systems

relationships critical to business operations further complicate this ever-growing attack surface. These

artificial intelligence to automate the processes of launching cyberattacks, making it easier for them to
identify and exploit vulnerabilities in their targets.
