But solutions that enable end-to-end integration of advanced network monitoring and IT-GRC have a larger demand. These solutions ensure that the business has a unified view of both operational security posture and compliance management. Compliance is to meet the legal requirements, security is to meet your business requirements.

All the basics of an IT infrastructure need to necessarily be protected by an encompassing, enforceable security policy.
It is important that the threat management solution that is chosen has the ability to deliver advanced persistent threat detection, data leakage, insider threats, malware analysis, continuous controls verification, and network e-discovery. It is also imperative to secure email that demands anti malware capabilities, as email is one of the easiest common way a virus infects an IT infrastructure.
