What makes some organizations more cyber resilient than others?
2020-02-04 06:00

Based on a survey of more than 4,600 enterprise security practitioners around the globe, the study explores the extent to which organizations prioritize security, the effectiveness of current security efforts, and the impact of new security-related investments.

From detailed modeling of cybersecurity performance, the study identified a group of elite "Leaders" - 17% of the research sample - that achieve significantly better results from their cybersecurity technology investments than other organizations.

Leaders were characterized as among the highest performers in at least three of the following four categories: stop more attacks, find breaches faster, fix breaches faster and reduce breach impact.

Leaders focused more of their budget allocations on sustaining what they already have, whereas the non-leaders place significantly more emphasis on piloting and scaling new capabilities.

The study also found that 83% believe that organizations need to think beyond securing just their own enterprises and take better steps to secure their vendor ecosystems in order to become cyber resilient.
