A study, sponsored by Websense, surveyed 4,881 IT and IT security practitioners in 15 countries including India, United Kingdom and the United States, with an average of 10 years’ experience in the field.
Results show a worrisome cybersecurity trend. When asked about the state of cybersecurity today, 57 percent of respondents do not think (100 percent – 43 percent) that their organization is protected from advanced cyber attacks.
________Highlights of the study________
-Fifty-seven percent of respondents do not think their organization is protected from advanced cyber attacks and 63 percent doubt they can stop the exfiltration of confidential information.
-Most respondents (69 percent) believe cybersecurity threats sometimes fall through the cracks of their companies’ existing security systems.
-Forty-four percent of companies represented in this research experienced one or more substantial cyber attacks in the past year.
-Eighty percent of respondents say their company’s leaders do not equate losing confidential data with a potential loss of revenue, despite Ponemon Institute research indicating the average cost of an organizational data breach is $5.4 million.
