In October 2016, IBM commissioned Forrester Consulting to evaluate the means by which enterprises are managing and securing various endpoint form factors today and how strategies will change over the next three years. In conducting an in-depth survey of 556 IT and security leaders in the US, the UK, Germany, India, and Australia, Forrester found that while enterprises have a decentralized approach to managing and securing smartphones, tablets, laptops, and IoT today, they will move to a more consolidated and cognitive approach by 2020.

There is one certainty with cybersecurity and that is nothing is certain. Take for example the role the endpoint plays in keeping an enterprise secure. While many cybersecurity professionals are relatively certain that endpoints are locked down and security policies are being enforced, the simple fact of the matter is that endpoints prove to be the root of most compromises.

Today’s enterprises support an assortment of end-user devices, including laptops and desktops (both PCs and Macs), tablets and hybrid devices, and, of course, smartphones. Not only do employees use a variety of form factors, but they run a variety of platforms on those devices, including: • Apple iOS and Apple macOS • Google Android • Microsoft Windows

While it might be desirable to standardize end users on one or two types of devices that all run the same operating system, most organizations don’t have that luxury. Today’s users demand an extraordinary level of flexibility and convenience—which means most organizations support a vast assortment of endpoints, including laptops and desktops (both PCs and Macs), tablets and hybrid devices, smartphones, and even wearables and IoT devices.

Sometimes the best clues to a security breach aren’t found in the contents of the files that are traversing your network. Instead, they’re found in the details of the network metadata. An unusually large data transfer associated with simple web-browsing traffic can indicate the injection of malware. Also, an examination of any changes in an attached file’s entropy can reveal encryption or compression activities that can indicate the addition of embedded malware.

Intelligent Desktop Virtualization (IDV) combines the best end point security with no compromises in user experience, productivity, cost, or flexibility.
