Zero trust at scale: Practical strategies for global enterprises

By- Shibu Paul, Vice President – International Sales at Array Networks The conventional perimeter-centred security system is becoming less effective in an atmosphere where cyber threats are becoming more prevalent. On the basis of the basic principle of “never trust, always verify,” the Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) model has evolved into an effective structure to enhance cybersecurity in businesses. With the support of industry insights and real data, this article analyses possible strategies for implementation of Zero Trust at all levels in large multinational companies. The Necessity for Complete Trust The usage of mobile phones, cloud computing and working remotely has increased the possibility of an organization’s attack surface. Traditional security models are not enough against emerging cyber threats considering that they depend on trust among the network perimeter. To tackle such challenges, the Zero Trust Architecture ensures robust verification of identity, restric...

Insider threats: The hidden risk in modern network security

Insider threats is one of the most underrated but certainly one among the devastating risks in the context of cybersecurity. These threats come from inside the organisation through employees, contractors or partners, who has authorization to access to information and systems as compared external attacks. Huge data breaches, financial losses and reputational damage can occur from the actions of an outlander pursuing internet- based attacks which may be malicious or unintentional. What are Insider Threats? Insider Threats include a variety of activities where a malicious insider of a company exploits their authorized access to damage a company's reputation and fulfill their malicious intentions. This can be stealing confidential details, destroying systems or inadvertently disclosing information because of carelessness. The difficulty with insider threats lies in their delicacy; their malicious actions can be tough to spot through traditional security steps because insiders already h...

Post-quantum security: Are networks ready for quantum-powered threats?

The rapid growth of quantum computing in the rapidly transforming field of cybersecurity includes both immense advantages as well as complex obstacles. The cryptographic fundamentals that safeguard the online world are in risk of getting hacked as quantum technologies expand. This article analyses how network security can be impacted by quantum computing to determine if current networks have the resources to cope with attacks triggered by quantum computing. What is Quantum Threat? With the assistance of the basic principles of quantum mechanics, quantum computers have the capacity perform tasks at an intensity that is not attainable with conventional computers. Additionally, commonly used cryptographic systems like RSA and ECC are specifically at risk by algorithms like Shor's algorithm, that allows for substantial integers much quicker. This capability may render the methods for encryption applied today outdated and making confidential data at risk of security breaches. In an eff...

Understanding DoS and DDoS attacks: Their nature and how they operate

By Abhishek Srinivasan, Director of Products at Array Networks In the modern era of technology, when organisations are dependent on online resources, it is fundamental to know about cyber-attacks such as Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) and Denial-of-Service (DoS). These attacks’ goal is to disintegrate the usual operations of websites, servers or networks creating substantial functional and financial obstacles. DoS and DDoS Attacks Explained A DoS attack comprises a single source overloading the system with traffic, making it inaccessible to authorized users. A DDoS attack, on the other hand, relies on multiple hacked systems, generally part of a botnet, to send traffic to the target from many different places in one go. DDoS attacks can be more complicated to mitigate due to their fragmented structure. What Is More Dangerous Between DoS or DDoS Although both attacks aim to disrupt services, they are tougher to spot and restrict due to their distributed approach. The immense amoun...

Battle of the Bots: How Smart Traffic Management Stops Automated Threats

Organizations are becoming highly concerned about automated bots in today’s digital age. These bots, which may operate as malicious or benign crawlers of websites, have the potential to hack into information, disruption with activities and exaggerate metrics to their advantage. To safeguard the safety and effectiveness of online services, it is essential for controlling traffic adequately with the aim to distinguished between malicious bots and legitimate users. The Rise in in Bot Traffic Online bot traffic has grown substantially according to latest research.51% of the traffic generated by the internet in 2025 were made from bots, 37% among which had been determined to be potentially malicious. This pattern of behaviour highlights the difficulties it is becoming for organizations deal with automated threats. Impact of Malicious Bots on Application Security Malicious bots are programmed to carry out harmful operations by simulating human interactions with websites in a way that loo...

Emerging network security threats and mitigation strategies

What is Network Security? To safeguard the integrity, privacy and accessibility of computer networks and information, the network security is designed, which encompasses the policies, practices and technologies. It involves effort to stop illegal access, misuse, malfunction, modification, destruction or incorrect disclosure of the underlying infrastructure. To explain it briefly, network security functions as a safeguard around the digital domain of an organization. It ensures that those with authorization can effectively effortlessly access systems. This consists of safeguarding internal organizational networks, cloud environments, wireless connectivity and internet-based apps. Strong network security has become more important than ever with organizations becoming more digital and remote work increasing. An established network assists organization to preserve business continuity, prevent data breaches and build trust with customers and partners. Additionally, it allows users comply to...
