What Is Edge Security? | Buzzwords

Edge security is an increasingly important aspect of any corporate network. In the simplest terms, edge security means protecting your most vulnerable devices at the “edge” of your network.

As the Internet of Things takes over and becomes an ever-present part of our personal and working lives, the number of endpoints has risen exponentially—and with it the number of attack vectors.

Malicious actors have wasted no time directing their efforts towards exploiting IoT devices, which today can be virtually anything—from phones to laptops and TVs to fridges.
