Business networks are constantly in a state of change with large amounts of data going back and forth. Hackers also are in a constant flux state, creating new ways to disrupt and hack into company networks. New viruses and trojans are created every single day, so the threat to network security is always there and always changing.

Planning starts with implementing staff to help in defense, not just an IT staff member, but someone who just focuses on defense. As needs grow, so does the defense staff and specialized defense staff can be brought on. A special executive (CISO) or someone in the same capacity could oversee the department and lead all decision-making in the defense staff.
