‘Trust nothing’: As breaches mount, a radical approach to cybersecurity gains favor
- Four years ago, Lexmark International Inc. was hit with a stubborn computer virus that tied up some members of its cybersecurity team for months.
- The Kwampirs malware had ‘run rampant’
- Lexmark had people working in offices, out of their homes and at coffee shops around the world.
