Is your organization actually ready for a major cyber event, or is it operating under a false sense of security? Global research shows that while nearly every company has a resilience plan, more than half fail when put to the test. Overconfidence at the board level is creating dangerous blind spots that leave critical vulnerabilities unaddressed.
The report "Cyber Resilience In Action" benchmarks 850 global enterprises to identify what the most resilient organizations do differently. Learn how to shift from a "prevention-only" mindset to a mature "Secure, Detect, and Recover" framework that ensures your business stays operational, no matter the threat.
Key Highlights:
The Maturity Gap: Only 39% of organizations have a fully established and continuously optimized cyber resilience strategy.
Leadership Overconfidence: 63% of IT professionals believe their leadership overestimates the organization’s actual readiness for a cyber event.
The "Confidence vs. Capability" Gap: Despite near-universal strategy adoption (99.5%), over half (57%) of organizations failed to recover effectively in recent tests.
Recovery Blind Spots: 46% of organizations recognize that their backup data is not as well-protected as it should be.
Unbalanced Defense: 78% of respondents feel their organization focuses significantly more on preventing attacks than on preparing to recover from them.
Unified Detection Shortfall: Only 30% of businesses use a comprehensive platform for threat detection across network, backup, and primary storage tiers.
The Success of High-Frequency Testing: Teams that simulate cyberattacks monthly or more are 45% more likely to recover successfully than sporadic testers.
SLA Impact: Organizations with mature resilience strategies are twice as likely to consistently meet their Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
The Role of AI/ML: Mature organizations are 3.1x more likely to use AI/ML-powered threat detection and proactive mitigation playbooks.
RTO/RPO Achievement: Frequent testers are significantly more likely to meet both recovery time and recovery point objectives.
Continuous Optimization: Strategies without continuous updates are found to become outdated rapidly against evolving modern threats.
