Depends on the needs of the business.  No one size fits all solution here.  Definitely recommend looking into SASE/SSE solutions here.  Also, VPN is just too risky these days especially when it comes to 3rd party access.

We had 100k+ employees but about 45k had laptops with VPN. We had Virtual Desktops off and on over the years. It’s matured significantly where perhaps 10-20% of those laptops could be Virtual now but cost of their in office desktop vs laptop still isn’t enough savings

Virtual is great for short term contractors, and situations where perhaps acquisitions need to participate in network before there is a dedicated link between networks.

Each situation really must be studied technically and financially for the best solution. (And security considerations too). ;)

As part of our NYSE IPO prep, we’re debating how to communicate our system hardening efforts in regulatory disclosures (e.g., SEC Form 20-F, SFC).

Would you recommend sharing % compliance (e.g., “85% CIS Tier 2”) or sticking to qualitative descriptions of how we identify and mitigate risks? Also, do SFC/ISO 27001 expectations require full ISMS integration, or is a % model acceptable?

We have 1000s of forms. Is anyone else using Azure AI to classify and report on large collections of forms by type and version? I’d like to connect with others doing this.

Why do you think there are so few mature AI-driven autonomous pentesting solutions on the market, and why does this topic seem to generate more hype than in-depth technical discussion?
