Why are traditional approaches to protecting data not effective anymore?

Traditional approaches are based on the assumption that a perimeter-based security model can keep all threats outside the network and that all users, devices, and networks within the perimeter are trustworthy.

In the current threat environment, where attackers may quickly infiltrate the perimeter using strategies like phishing, social engineering, or exploiting flaws in the system, this strategy is ineffective.

Traditional approaches imply static policies that cannot adapt to evolving trends, circumstances, or emerging threats. They focus on prevention method which is insufficient to combat sophisticated attacks.

This results in long response times to security incidents.

Finally, Traditional methods frequently require a lot of resources to maintain and run because they are excessively complicated.

This may result in errors, incorrect setups, and other vulnerabilities attackers may exploit.
