Modernizing Cybersecurity for the Future
ESG research points to a dangerous conclusion: existing threat detection and response strategies aren’t working, leaving organizations in a state of more cyber risk than they perceive.
Why? Security operations for threat detection and response are based on too many tools and manual processes, not to mention an overworked and under-skilled security operations staff. As a result, many firms are scrambling to bridge the threat detection and response gap by increasing budgets and looking for innovative new security technology solutions.
The white paper “Understanding XDR Requirements” by Fidelis Security, in partnership with The Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), talks about the importance of Extended Detection and Response (XDR) technology in modern cybersecurity. It addresses the shortcomings of current threat detection and response tactics, emphasizing the issues caused by the complexity of security operations, lack of resources, and reliance on disconnected security solutions. The paper also addresses major XDR outcomes, such as improving security alert fidelity, acting as a central management hub, and protecting against a growing attack surface.
The fact that 83% of organizations intend to increase spending on threat detection and response technologies, services, and personnel demonstrates that organizations are becoming more aware of the importance of investing in cybersecurity measures to combat the rising threat of cyber-attacks and data breaches.
