Over reliance on patches?
Business needs to adopt a more holistic approach to security instead of relying on quick-fix patches to combat network attacks according to Top Layer Networks, Australia and New Zealand manager, David Britt. While patches may be an time saving necessity, they do not solve the underlying issues associated with network security in the same way as preventative measures, “there needs to be a much stronger emphasis on planned security measures, with an increasing focus on preventative infrastructure rather than ‘prescription-style’ cures,†Britt said.
