Report Finds Security Operations Centers Lack Maturity and Skilled Professionals
Hewlett-Packard's third annual State of Security Operations Report 2016 found that security operations center maturity remains well below optimal levels, with 85 percent of assessed organizations falling below recommended maturity levels.
While this number is alarmingly high, the report said it accounts for the influx of new SOCs that enterprises are building to address evolving security challenges. The findings also demonstrate the need for organizations to strike the right performance balance across all areas of the SOC, from the foundation up, according to the report.
