Data integration and the future of the cloud is a critical cybersecurity conversation HR and leaders need to have. According to Gartner, by 2024, 30% of digital businesses will mandate DNA storage trials, addressing the exponential growth of data poised to overwhelm existing storage technology. People are collecting exponential amounts of data, significantly more than ever collected before.

Cloud-first networks and the role of security in a hybrid, multi-cloud world show we have a moment to take the current tech conversation beyond traditional cybersecurity strategies.
