At the network security level, the most common challenges for businesses are prevention, detection, and response to protect business endpoints, servers, networks, and sensitive data. Installing anti-virus software is the first step. However, in the face of today endless network attacks, this step is relatively passive. The airline incident started with a system anomaly in March and confirmed the leakage of data in May. It was announced in October and the whole process lasted for more than six months. A company spokesperson said that it took so long to find out exactly what happened.

The environment faced by businesses is complex and severe. Especially for airlines with large-scale business, many employees, and extremely valuable customer information stored, they will naturally become the target of hackers.

Targeted attacks, advanced stubborn threats (APT), zero-day viruses, and botnet activity are hard to find for security engineers who only get relevant information from the company internal network environment.
