Industry Challenges

To maximize their own efficiency and ensure clients high returns on investment, professional services organizations aim to complete projects within as short a time as possible. Thus, Business Continuity is essential for these enterprises. Additionally, to increase productivity, professional services firms work closely with their clients, and this coordination means large investments in communication networks and cloud resources, including mobile platforms for travelling field staff. However, all of these cloud applications and mobile devices increase cybersecurity risk, especially with Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies. The industry’s vulnerability is especially problematic because of the confidential nature of consulting work, including but not limited to financial reports, legal documents and other high-value proprietary information.
