Most enterprise cybersecurity teams lack the ability to remediate risk
Vulcan Cyber released the results of its latest vulnerability remediation maturity research project. A survey of more than 100 enterprise security executives across North America and EMEA found that most enterprise cybersecurity and vulnerability management organizations lack the ability to drive remediation initiatives, to reduce risk and achieve acceptable levels of cyber hygiene. Vulcan Cyber is using the benchmark data from this research to provide cybersecurity leaders with a free vulnerability remediation maturity self-assessment service.
Conducted by Pulse, the Vulcan Cyber vulnerability remediation maturity survey examines the maturity of enterprise vulnerability remediation programs while seeking to identify where shortcomings exist within respondents’ cyber hygiene efforts. According to the findings, 56% of organizations lack the ability to remediate vulnerabilities with speed and at the scale necessary to protect business from exploits and hackers. Immature cybersecurity teams typically react to vulnerabilities on a case-by-case basis. Additionally, nearly 80% of respondents do not have the proper tooling to proactively orchestrate and automate vulnerability remediation.
