SailPoint-enquête Geeft aan dat 44 procent van de organisaties afgelopen jaar een datalek heeft gehad

LONDEN –(BUSINESS WIRE)– Een recente enquête van SailPoint Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SAIL), de leider op het gebied van enterprise identity governance, uitgebracht bij Infosecurity Europe, illustreert de voortdurende strijd die IT-leiders voeren tegen frequente aanvallen van cybercriminelen. Het onderzoek, uitgevoerd door onderzoeksbureau Vanson Bourne, heeft 400 IT besluitvormers in de Verenigde Staten, het Verenigd Koninkrijk en Frankrijk gevraagd om zowel het aantal data-inbreuken de het afgelopen 12 maanden als de financiële schade die daaruit voortvloeit te kwantificeren.

SailPoint constateerde dat 44 procent van de ondervraagde organisaties de afgelopen 12 maanden ten minste één datalek heeft gehad. Nog zorgwekkender is dat organisaties het hackers makkelijk maken: van degenen die een datalek melden, waren er de afgelopen 12 maanden gemiddeld bijna 30 datalekken per organisatie. Deze inbreuken kosten de organisaties bijna 700.000 pond (of bijna 1 miljoen dollar) om aan te pakken vanuit een IT-perspectief. Daarbij zijn boetes, gederfde inkomsten en merkschade niet meegerekend.

Misschien wel de meest verontrustende bevinding uit het onderzoek is echter dat 9 procent van de IT-managers niet met zekerheid kon zeggen of hun organisaties al dan niet waren gehackt. Dit toont aan dat het voor organisaties vandaag de dag nog steeds duidelijk is, dat ze niet alleen te maken krijgen met datalekken, maar ook met boetes op grond van de regelgeving. Organisaties die niet aan de eisen voldoen, krijgen bijvoorbeeld te maken met hoge boetes, die 4 procent van de wereldwijde jaarlijkse inkomsten kunnen bedragen, wanneer de algemene verordening inzake gegevensbescherming (GDPR) in werking treedt.

SailPoint Survey Indicates that 44 Percent of Organisations Have Suffered a Data Breach in the Last Year

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)– A recent survey from SailPoint Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SAIL), the leader in enterprise identity governance, released at Infosecurity Europe illustrates the ongoing struggle that IT leaders have addressing frequent attacks from cyber criminals. The survey, conducted by research company Vanson Bourne, asked 400 IT decision-makers in the United States, the United Kingdom and France to quantify both the number of data breaches experienced in the last 12 months and the resulting financial damage.

SailPoint found that 44 percent of organisations surveyed had suffered at least one data breach in the last 12 months. More worrisome is that organisations clearly have their work cut out for them: of those reporting a data breach, the average was almost 30 data breaches per organisation in the last 12 months. These breaches cost the organisations nearly £700,000 (or nearly $1 million) to address from an IT perspective, which excludes fines, lost revenue and brand damage.

Perhaps the most troubling survey finding, however, is that 9 percent of IT leaders could not confidently say whether or not their organisations had been breached at all. This demonstrates a continued, clear lack of visibility within organisations today that not only exposes them to data breaches, but also regulatory fines. For example, organisations found non-compliant face massive fines, which can be 4 percent of global annual revenue, as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) takes effect.

“IT leaders face an uphill battle. Hackers are increasingly more sophisticated and more organised, and governments are adding new layers of complexity with regulations like GDPR,” said Paul Trulove, Chief Product Officer of SailPoint. “Yesterday’s security strategies are simply not sufficient to address these security and compliance requirements. Implementing a comprehensive identity governance program helps organisations answers the critical questions of who has access to what, who should have access to what, and how is that access being used, providing the much-needed visibility into today’s hybrid, constantly evolving IT environment.”

By implementing a comprehensive identity governance strategy that secures and enables identities for all users, across all applications and all data as the cornerstone of modern security and IT operations, enterprises can reduce exposure points and strengthen their overall security posture.
