InformationWeek 2014 Strategic Security Survey Research Findings © 2014 Property of UBM Tech; All Rights Reserved
2
Enterprises outsource everything from server hosting to application development. Why not security? Look for this year to mark the start of a new era in information security, where organizations that can afford to build sophisticated analysis teams -- able to incorporate device context into security events data in a high-volume information steam -- do so, and those that can't hire specialized providers. "Managing the complexity of security" reclaimed the No. 1 spot among 10 challenges facing the 536 respondents to our InformationWeek 2014 Strategic Security Survey, all from organizations with 100 or more employees. More stats: >> 58% see an infected personal device connecting to the corporate network as a top endpoint security concern, making it the No. 1 response, ahead of phishing and lost devices. >> 56% say cyber-criminals pose the greatest threat to their organizations this year, the top answer, ahead of authorized users and employees at 49%. >> 31% conduct their own audits of cloud providers. >> 23% have experienced a security breach or espionage in the past year. Respondent breakdown: 41% have 5,000 or more employees; 30% are over 10,000. Government, financial services, and education are well-represented. Want more?
