Abstract
This IDC PlanScape provides guidance on best practices for enabling security at the edge. It explains why edge security has become a critical component of enterprise security writ large, as well as the unique challenges that edge security presents. It also offers strategies and best practices for helping businesses manage edge security risks.
"It can be all too easy to overlook the edge when formulating enterprise security strategy — or to assume that the security controls in place for traditional resources will naturally suffice to protect edge resources too," says Chris Tozzi, adjunct research advisor for IDC's IT Executive Programs (IEP). "The reality is that securing the edge is a specialized domain, which requires specialized defenses."
