What would the financial impact and accompanying negative publicity of a successful breach mean for your organization?
In the light of recent attacks, ARTEC advises to caution when working with virtualized IT infrastructures. These are becoming increasingly popular with businesses and organizations. However, they also pose very significant risks, which are often underestimated.
