Large enterprises have placed cybersecurity at the forefront of their strategic initiatives; paradoxically, those tasked with safeguarding these digital fortresses are becoming more uncertain about their defenses, however. Despite a relentless accumulation of security tools – an average of 76 per organization – these security leaders find themselves in a fog of war, unable to clearly see the vulnerabilities lurking within their complex IT environments.
This disconnect between resource investment and risk visibility highlights a critical challenge: more tools do not equate to more security. In fact, the proliferation of disparate security solutions creates a labyrinthine system that is difficult to manage and offers diminishing returns in terms of overall protection.
Other cybersecurity concerns businesses have include silos and inefficiency, lack of automation and complexity in security. In fact, according to a Forrester report, 91% of security professionals express concern over their organizations' security complexity,
The result? A heightened state of cyber risk. As organizations expand their digital footprint and embrace new technologies, their attack surface grows exponentially. Without a clear and comprehensive understanding of their IT estate, security teams are left playing catch-up.
