Mexico. In recent months, a long list of companies worldwide have been victims of cyber attacks, these are companies that claimed to have strength in computer security. Faced with this scenario, Westcon wholesaler of value in advanced solutions of networks, security and communications technologies, and Arbor Networks offer the Mexican market advanced business protection solutions for the timely detection of sophisticated threats within the network.
The threat landscape has changed time and time again over the years, as mentioned in Arbor Networks' latest Research Report 451 "Campaign Innovation in the World of Cybercrime," as advocates strive to overcome them, now adversaries include hacktivists and state actors. "Cybernetics" is even an official branch of the military for some of the world's largest nations. Now that almost everything that can be connected is tied to the Internet and cloud computing is becoming widespread, attackers have far more goals and opportunities than ever before.
This report explains that malware remains a serious and unsolved problem, and rarely makes up the entirety of the threat we face when dealing with malicious adversaries. For criminals to succeed, a number of events usually must occur. In fact, according to Verizon's Data Breach Investigations Report, malware is typically implicated in less than half of all known breaches. However, security spending tends to focus heavily on malware disruption, despite being only one piece of the attack campaign.
In this way Arbor Networks and Westcon understand the offensive mindset of cyber actors and offer solutions to protect the most demanding and complex networks of vendors and enterprises from DDoS attacks and advanced threats.
"Westcon is instrumental in achieving our goals as our business model is through distribution.
