As a result, they open a range of potential new vulnerabilities, expand your attack surface, and present new security requirements that your teams need help solving.
Today, security must fulfill multiple roles: enabler of digital transformation, steward of customer trust, and bulwark of organizational reputation. As an essential element of business success, aligning a company's perception of security as a mindset instead of just a feature represents a cultural change that requires time and effort.

Security practices are far more challenging because of process complications and increased time pressures on app development. Organizations need to simplify their approach, with F5 Distributed Cloud Services poised to help.
