Overview: Regain the upper hand on advanced targeted attacks. Learn how in a compelling new brief featuring Gartner research.

The cyber criminals are winning.

Today, more than 95 percent of businesses unknowingly host compromised endpoints. This is a direct result of advanced targeted attacks easily circumventing traditional IT security defenses - which can lead to theft of customer data, loss of valuable intellectual property, and irreparable damage to your brand. Discover what every security professional should know about stopping today's advanced threats, such as zero-day and targeted APT attacks, before they compromise your network. In this eye-opening research brief, you'll learn:

• How traditional defenses such as firewalls, intrusion prevention systems (IPS) and web gateways can leave you vulnerable to zero-day and other targeted attacks

• How to neutralize the impact of advanced targeted attacks with a "lean forward" six-step continuous monitoring approach

• How to gain visibility into all stages of attacks across web and email

Don't leave your network - and your brand - unprotected. Download your copy of this exclusive brief, now.
