Network teams provide essential expertise around vulnerability assessments and device vulnerability, but EMA Research reveals only 45% of network teams are completely successful at collaborating with cybersecurity teams

Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), a leading IT and data management research and consulting firm, announced an upcoming webinar titled “How Network Teams are Powering Stronger Cybersecurity: Closing Gaps in Vulnerability Assessments and Device Visibility.” Shamus McGillicuddy, vice president of research covering network infrastructure and operations at EMA, and Brad Reinboldt, senior product manager at NetAlly, will share insights on how stronger alignment between network and security teams—combined with the right tools—can create more secure and resilient IT environments.

While cybersecurity teams have access to powerful tools, they readily acknowledge they are not networking experts. When gaps arise—whether in vulnerability assessments or in visibility across edge devices—it is often the network team that steps in, bringing the specialized expertise and tools needed to close those gaps. Strengthening collaboration between these teams is essential for building more resilient and secure IT environments.

“Most network teams actively monitor and analyze the network to detect vulnerabilities, compliance violations, and suspicious behavior,” McGillicuddy said. “These efforts help cybersecurity groups protect digital operations. Unfortunately, nearly half of network teams tell us they have gaps in their ability to provide this visibility. This impacts effective collaboration between the groups”
