This video challenges the traditional "Cybersecurity First" mindset by revealing a critical gap: the lack of focus on protecting the data itself. While most cybersecurity strategies are designed to secure networks, endpoints, and applications, they often fail to safeguard the actual data assets—the real target of cyberattacks. The video introduces the concept of data-centric security, where security measures are embedded directly into the data, making it persistently protected no matter where it travels or how it is used. This modern approach complements zero-trust frameworks and helps organizations build a more resilient and future-ready data protection strategy.
