Wherever you are in your SASE or SSE journey, it can be helpful knowing what other CISOs are doing once they’ve implemented these platforms. Getting started with enhanced security is a lot easier than you might think. With Cato’s security services being delivered from a scalable cloud-native architecture at multiple global points of presence, the value is immediate. In this blog post, we bring the top three things you, as a CISO, can do with Cato.

The position of CISO is not an enviable one. Modern CISOs face enormous challenges like managing the complexity of on-prem and cloud environments, being responsible for the actions of thousands of employees without having authority over them, being perceived as a drag on growth and other resources, and trying to keep up in a compliance and technology landscape that just keeps changing. Oh and budget? Limited and scrutinized.

I recently hosted and moderated a distinguished panel of Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) - Nitin Raina, CISO at ThoughtWorks, Mike Wilkes, former CISO at Marvel and Yogesh Badwe, CSO at Druva. We discussed major trends for 2024 across an array of topics including the evolving threat landscape, recent regulations, data privacy considerations, securing product and critical infrastructure.

Building trust with customers often starts by demonstrating the right security controls. In the digital age, data security is paramount, and adherence to standards like ISO/IEC 27001, PCI DSS, and SOC 2 has become a key differentiator in the competitive market landscape.
