Current cybersecurity threats are confusing and companies struggle
Companies must try to defend against cyberattacks and keep data secure, but are left confused about evolving threats.
Companies and enterprises are seeing the negative impact of cybersecurity issues, such as data breaches can cause, but aren't using information protection strategies to help combat the problem, according to a recent survey published by CSO Magazine and PwC.
Three out of four companies experienced some type of security problem in the past year, with an average of 135 incidents per company. To make matters worse, improving cybersecurity still isn't company priority when compared to other day-to-day business activities.
"While the number of cybercrime incidents and the monetary losses associated with them continue to rise, most U.S. organizations' cybersecurity capabilities do not rival the persistence and technological skills of their cyber adversaries," according to the survey.
In addition keeping cybercriminals out, companies also must align internal strategies to inform employees about mobile security problems. Just 31 percent of companies have a mobile security strategy in place, a growing concern when bring your own device initiatives become even more popular.
