What’s Holding Back the Performance of Your Security Technology Stack?
In today’s fast-evolving digital landscape, organizations worldwide are realizing that the tools and processes designed to protect them from cyber threats aren’t working as effectively as they should. A staggering 75% of companies, according to Gartner, are already taking steps to streamline their cybersecurity vendor partnerships, emphasizing the need to refine and optimize their security technology stacks.
The reasons behind this shift are clear. The rise of cyber threats demands stronger cybersecurity postures as adversaries continuously adapt and threats become more complex. Digital transformation, remote work and the integration of artificial intelligence only add to the complexity of modern infrastructure.
Risk management has become a critical driver for change. Security incidents are not only increasing in frequency, but also in their impact. Security teams must minimize the fallout from cyber incidents and respond efficiently to protect sensitive data.
In addition, the evolving regulatory landscape and stricter demands from cyber insurance underwriters pose compliance challenges. Companies need technology stacks that meet reporting requirements and demonstrate diligent protection of sensitive systems and data.
For many organizations, cybersecurity portfolios have grown organically, resulting in a jumbled set of tools that don’t align with their security goals. It’s time to untangle and optimize your security tech stack to address these challenges. Our eBook, featuring insights from J.R. Cunningham, Chief Security Officer at Nuspire, offers practical advice on achieving a security operation and technology portfolio you can be proud of.
