Security News > 2022 > September > Report: Digital trust is critical, but many enterprises are not prioritizing it
The State of Digital Trust 2022 research report from ISACA found that nearly all respondents believe digital trust is important and 63% said that digital trust is relevant to their jobs.
Those that measure digital trust have two areas in common-their board of directors has prioritized digital trust and they use a digital trust framework, according to the report.
Respondents said the top three components of digital trust are security, data integrity, and privacy, but only half of the respondents agreed that there is sufficient collaboration among professionals in these and other digital trust fields.
"Digital trust is a currency that must be backed by a robust validation process," said Matt Chiodi, chief trust officer for Cerby and a member of ISACA's Digital Trust Advisory Council, in a statement.
Looking ahead, 82% said digital trust will be much more important in their organization and 28% said their organization will likely have a senior staff role dedicated to digital trust in five years, the report said.
To help enterprises grow their digital trust capabilities, ISACA is releasing the Digital Trust Ecosystem Framework in the fourth quarter of 2022.
