Attacks against endpoints have become more costly, up more than $2 million since 2018.
With the rise in BYOD and employees working from home or remotely, endpoints have become more prevalent.
Attacks against endpoints are growing at the same time that detection is getting harder.
Finally, a full 80% of respondents said they either use or plan to use Microsoft's Windows Defender antivirus solution on their endpoints.
"The move to Windows 10 provides the perfect opportunity for organizations to retool their endpoint security to better defend against the zero-day attacks and advanced threats that are evading legacy antivirus in 2020 and pose the biggest risk to their business," Andrew Homer, VP of Security Strategy at Morphisec, said.
