Thinking Outside Norms

In this chapter, I aim to expand your understanding of creating an effective data protection solution. Instead of offering a single solution, I encourage you to approach the problem from different perspectives. Drawing on the knowledge you've gained from the first two chapters, I'm confident you now have a solid grasp of the issue and available options. However, it's crucial to not feel limited by these options. To illustrate this, I've structured this chapter to review in detail what you might already know, and then explore creative alternatives. Using scenarios commonly encountered in the field, I've employed a sample organization to make the concepts easier to grasp. For security analysts and IT administrators reading this, you'll discover new ways to frame your questions and address challenges. Sometimes, all it takes is a clear description of your problem to guide a conversation with a security vendor.
