90% of CXOs reported an increase in cyberattacks since the world stayed home

I can attest to the news that the number of breaches has increased since the WFH economy started.

Alissa Knight Group CEO, Analyst and Former Hacker, Brier & Thorn and Knight Ink
70% of global IT leaders are prioritizing cybersecurity since the world stayed home

For us, if our business stopped then we could not provide care for our patients and that is just not an option for us.

Mitch Teichman Senior Manager, Client Engineering, VITAS Healthcare
#1 concern identifying remote endpoints since the world stayed home

Every system, every user is broadening the attack surface. If you don’t know what’s in your organization, someone else will come along and figure it out for you.

Charles Ross Chief Customer Officer, Tanium
98% of CXOs saw security challenges rise in the first two months of the pandemic

Now people are largely subsisting on their own, in their own perimeter and that perimeter is shared with personal machines. The attack surface has increased massively.

Robin Vann Chief Solution Officer and CTO, RelianceACSN
93% of global IT leaders delayed security priorities when the world stayed home

Security was an afterthought when bringing systems online. They opened the front door, opened the windows and put up a sign saying they are defenseless.

Charles Ross Chief Customer Officer, Tanium
43% of IT ops leaders reported patching issues on personal devices

We still can’t reliably do very simple things like patching. We live in a world where 80% efficacy of when I send a patch out is the de facto standard.

Egon Rinderer Global Vice President of Technology & Federal CTO, Tanium
47% of IT ops leaders plan to improve patch processes

It only takes one server or workstation that isn’t patched for a malicious actor to get access to the network and then to move laterally across.

Scott Lowe Managing Director and Founder, EndPointX
48% of global IT leaders are investing in endpoint management tools

Having that peace of mind – to not have to worry about visibility and control when we were scrambling and worrying about so many other things – was tremendous for my team and the IT organization.

Mitch Teichman Senior Manager, Client Engineering, VITAS Healthcare
38% of global IT leaders are reducing reliance on VPNs

VPN capacity can impede IT's access to remote devices and throttle the distribution of critical software updates and patches.

    When those devices come back to the corporate network and plug in, all of the little code snippets that were installed covertly over time will activate in the enterprise environment. You’re going to start seeing a new wave of enterprise risk and incidents when all those little Trojan horses return to the corporate moat.

    If there was a successful breach against one of the global financial services companies, the impact would be very, very severe. Their reputation is everything to them. After all, they look after everyone’s money. If they were breached, the reputation damage – and the damage to their share price – would be incredible.
