Let's start with the good news: according to a survey of security and business leaders, executives have become far more aware of the importance of cyber security in the past two years, better aligning security teams and leadership.
According to the study, which surveyed 1,175 security and business leaders, 91 percent of companies have been asked by customers to provide proof they meet specific security requirements, while 85 percent were asked the same by business partners. Despite accidental overlap, which LogRhythm said can lead to additional work and slower response times, deploying new security solutions was ranked as the third most popular priority for security teams, only beaten by improving defenses and reducing response time.
