"War in Ukraine Has Pushed Two-Thirds of Businesses to Change Cyber Strategy"

Security researchers at Venafi discovered that after six months of war in Ukraine, nation-sponsored cyber-warfare continues to be top of mind for security decision makers.  Nearly two-thirds (64%) of organizations believe they have been targeted, or at least impacted, by a nation-state cyberattack.  The researchers also found that, while 64% think the threat of physical war is a greater concern in their country than cyber-war, 68% have had more conversations about cybersecurity with their board and senior management in response to the Russia/Ukraine conflict.  The researchers noted that overall, 66% of organizations have changed their cybersecurity strategy as a direct response to the conflict.  Venafi, which provides machine identity management, found that the corruption of machine identity tools such as digital certificates and cryptographic keys is growing in state-sponsored cyberattacks.  The researchers interviewed 1101 security decision makers in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Australia for their study.
