The boom in cybersecurity point solutions In a recent Heimdal webinar, we spoke with Thomas Baasnes of private equity firm Verdane. Thomas is the company’s cybersecurity lead – whenever they invest in a new company, he does due diligence to ensure those firms have appropriate cyber defenses in place.  During the webinar, Thomas described an issue he sees more and more today:  In my perspective, what has happened in the security industry for the last few years is that as the awareness [of cyber threats] in the market has increased … you have a lot of solution providers that have been coming up with new solutions for solving single problems.  Source – Thomas Baasnes webinar There are now dozens of tools available that can be deployed on company networks to monitor for an ever-growing range of risks.
