Instead of buying expensive individual products that add complexity to an organization's security architecture, many small to medium businesses are now able to take a holistic approach to their needs. This elevated point of view allows companies to implement a comprehensive risk management process that weighs security threats and the realities of business in order to find a practical balance. Unfortunately, layer upon layer of products hasn't improved the overall security of organizations. Instead, it's created a patchwork of disparate systems--both localized and geographically spread out. Companies that have invested heavily in a series of one-off solutions are now contending with security gaps that attackers can exploit. In the past, the concept of reducing complexity in order to improve security sounded contradictory. Today, it's simply a reflection of the times--and new integration capabilities.
