Security attacks can be isolated and local, organized and global. The method of attack might be familiar, such as denial of service; a more sophisticated blended threat using social engineering techniques; or even an invisible threat, such as infections of legitimate websites. The results of undetected, uncontained security breaches are well known, including expensive repair and restoration, lost revenue, compromise and loss of vital data, disruption of business, and damage to your company's reputation.
