Most struggle to identify the root causes behind an Incident
Sophos, a cybersecurity as a service company, recently published a survey report, which found 93% of organisations across Asia Pacific and Japan find the execution of some essential security operation tasks, such as threat hunting, challenging. These tasks include understanding how an attack happened, with 76% of respondents stating they have challenges identifying the root cause of an incident and 71% of those surveyed reported challenges with timely remediation.According to “The State of Cybersecurity 2023: The Business Impact of Adversaries on Defenders” report, 74% correspondents said they have challenges understanding which signals and alerts to investigate, and 71% reported challenges prioritising investigations.
63% wish the IT team could spend more time on strategic issues and less time on firefighting, and 55% said that the time spent on cyberthreats has impacted the IT team’s work on other projects. While 94% said they are working with external specialists to scale their operations, the majority still remain involved with managing threats rather than taking a fully outsourced approach."Today's threats require a timely and coordinated response. Unfortunately, too many organisations are stuck in reactive mode.
