"Only 11% of Organizations Can Detect Intruders in Under One Minute"

In new study, 1,900 senior IT decision-makers and IT security pros in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Mexico, Middle East, Australia, Germany, Japan, France, India, and Singapore across major industry sectors were surveyed to see how fast they could detect intruders. The majority of respondents (80%) reported that in the past 12 months, they have been unable to prevent intruders on their networks from accessing their targeted data, with 44% of the participants pointing to being too slow to detect intruders as the cause.  Currently, 95% of respondents surveyed, fell short of meeting the three-time standards of detecting intruders.  Out of the individuals surveyed, only 11% of respondent organizations can detect intruders in under one minute, 9% can investigate an incident in 10 minutes, 33% can contain an incident in 60 minutes, and only 5% can do all three. The average time for an organization to detect an attack, investigate an attack, and contain an attack takes an average of 162 hours.
