Ponemon’s survey found that 48% of senior security executives say ransomware is the greatest threat, followed by zero-day attacks and DDoS attacks. Senior security leaders’ greatest concern today is ransomware attacks that use file-based and file exploits to infiltrate enterprise networks. Key insights from Ponemon’s survey on endpoint security include: Ransomware continues to be endpoint security’s greatest threat In addition, the majority of enterprise security leaders interviewed, 63%, say that the lack of endpoint visibility is the most significant barrier to their organizations achieving a stronger security posture. For example, 54% had an average of five attacks on their organizations last year, at an average annual cost of $1.8 million. And while the average annual budget spent on endpoint protection by enterprises is approximately $4.2 million, 48% of endpoint devices, or 64,800 endpoints, aren’t detectable on their networks.Įnterprises are paying a high price for minimal endpoint visibility and control. The Ponemon Institute’s survey found that the typical enterprise manages approximately 135,000 endpoint devices. IT and IT security teams struggle to get an exact count of their endpoints at any given time, making creating a baseline to measure their progress a challenge. Why securing endpoints is getting harder to do Most importantly, the most advanced endpoint solutions can self-heal and regenerate themselves after an attack. They can also scan endpoints on and off the network to determine which ones need patches and automatically apply them without impacting device or network performance. The most advanced endpoint security solutions can collect and report the configuration, inventory, patch history and policies in place for an endpoint in real time.
