A new report conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group highlights why today's security teams find it increasingly difficult to detect and stop cyber threats targeting their organizations.

The research found that 70% of organizations have fallen victim to an attack that used encrypted traffic to avoid detection.

45% admitted they've fallen victim multiple times.

Worryingly, 66% still don't have visibility into all their encrypted traffic, leaving them highly vulnerable to further encrypted attacks.

The report shows that cybersecurity and networking professionals are struggling against rapidly increasing threat detection and response workloads, preventing analysts from dealing with sophisticated threats.

"Organizations face a barrage of threats on all fronts - in their network, cloud and IT environments - while cybercriminals use techniques like encryption to breach firms undetected. What's more, many don't have the skills or staff to deal with increasing security workloads," comments Mark Wojtasiak, VP Product Strategy at Vectra.
