Cyware revealed a research detailing the challenges affecting modern security operations teams and the negative business impact of siloed security operations.

According to the study, conducted by Forrester Consulting, 71% of security leaders report their teams need access to threat intelligence, security operations data, incident response data, and vulnerability data, yet 65% of respondents find it very challenging to provide security teams with cohesive data access.

Siloed security data and data access issues 64% of respondents note that sharing cyber threat intelligence between their organizations' security operations center, incident response and threat intelligence teams is limited.

Organizations also cite several data silos and data access issues that hamper their ability to achieve collective defense.

Top obstacles to unifying technologies include cross team collaboration, data silos within security teams, discovering and accessing data and functional silos within security.

Due to difficulties unifying data access, security teams and security technologies, firms report several consequences tied to hazardous defense issues, including slow threat response, avoidable data breaches and avoidable human error.
