Hybrid IT is the backbone of modern business operations. Data moves across on-premises infrastructure, cloud environments, and edge computing networks while employees log in from anywhere, accessing critical applications from multiple devices. This operational flexibility fuels growth—but it also expands the attack surface, introducing new security risks that traditional defenses were never designed to handle.
