Armis has released a report that sheds light on the global election cybersecurity landscape. Among surveyed IT leaders, 66% express a lack of confidence in the United States government’s ability to defend citizens and enterprises from cyberwarfare. With election season upcoming, IT leaders believe cyberwarfare could be a notable concern. 39% of IT leaders report that cyberwarfare could influence the electoral process’s integrity, and 42% believe the media could be impacted.
At the same time, a majority of IT leaders report confidence in their organizations’ abilities to manage cyberwarfare incidents, with 95% expressing preparedness to respond to these threats. However, the report suggests that many U.S. organizations are unprepared for such a reality.
