Scenario:
You have finally implemented your firewall and VPN solutions and are feeling much better about your network’s security posture. It is now the end of the fiscal year, and your CISO is looking to you for future budget requirements.
He asks for your thoughts on future trends in network security threats, evolving technologies that may mitigate these threats, and how “GRC” will contribute.
You will:

List your thoughts on what the future holds for network security threats (what they are, will they increase, decline, etc.).
List any evolving technologies (new) that you are aware of that can help with the threats you listed.
Explain how Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) will help with these matters, what part will they play (Chapter 15).
