Why Managing Security Should Be Like Managing Life

Written by Dan Kaplan | May 3, 2016

Life is full of challenges and complexities that can hinder your ability to optimally achieve tasks all on our own, without the assistance of a professional. This can range from something simple, like getting from Point A to Point B or putting dinner on the table, to more complex, like installing a new kitchen countertop or drawing up legal documents.

And to compensate for these various limitations - whether they are driven by a lack of time, expertise, desire or something else - you commonly turn to outside help. No matter the chore or problem, there are countless times in your life when tasking the responsibility to a specialist is worth the weight off your back. In fact, this delegation model has given way to the exploding "on-demand economy" that exists to fulfill consumer needs in real-time (or close to it).

But what about in the world of business, specifically when it comes to information security and ensuring that a company is addressing threats and vulnerabilities in the most ideal way possible?

A new infographic from Trustwave beautifully paints this parallel and helps you understand the true benefits of partnering with a managed security services provider (MSSP). Please enjoy the infographic and remember to share it with your peers!
