Ronen gives consultation on how to safely connect companies to each other.
Ronen is invited to a meeting in which a large enterprise class company is looking to consolidate, or absorb a daughter company in order to streamline, create synergy ( Ronen always gets the chills when he says that 4 letter word), and save expenses. Of course, information security is important since most often connections are made between the networks in an insecure manner, many times even without the use of firewalls .
As Ronen read over 10 years ago in the first edition of hacking exposed, hackers are on the lookout for companies that acquire other companies. Top management is in a rush to connect and rarely take network security into consideration. The hackers “leapfrog” from network to network.
