Managing preventive cybersecurity tools requires a skilled workforce.

75% view cloud infrastructure as their organization's greatest exposure risk source.

In order, the highest perceived risks come from the use of public cloud, multi-cloud and/or hybrid cloud, private cloud infrastructure and cloud container management tools.

It takes considerable human resources to manage the many tools required to practice preventive cybersecurity - and to create meaningful risk reports from these disparate data sources.

While 75% of respondents say they consider user identity and access privileges when they prioritize vulnerabilities for remediation, 50% say their organization lacks an effective way of integrating such data into their preventive cybersecurity and exposure management practices.

The new rules that mandate the disclosure of material cybersecurity incidents by public companies also stipulate that they outline their processes for assessing, identifying and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats.
