It\u2019s no surprise. A data breach is not just a technical issue that could disrupt your business processes. A data breach is a digital wound that jeopardizes financial, proprietary, and personal data, creating long-term chaos. It\u2019s also a publicity nightmare, as it can hurt your clients\u2019 or customers\u2019 trust in your enterprise in both the short and long term. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In preparing for a data breach, your enterprise needs to recognize just how severe and persistent a threat data breaches can be…and how vulnerable you are to these digital threats. Your enterprise needs to remember perhaps above all that preparing for a data breach is a marathon, not a sprint. <\/span><\/p>\n

Why Preparing for a Data Breach is Essential<\/b><\/h3>\n

44%<\/b> of enterprises have suffered at least one data breach in the past year, according to a survey by identity governance<\/a> and administration solution provider <\/span>Sailpoint<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Of those enterprises reporting a data breach, they each experienced an average of approximately <\/span>30<\/b> data breaches in the past year. <\/span><\/p>\n

9%<\/b>\u2014nearly one in ten\u2014IT leaders responding to the survey could not confidently state whether their enterprise had suffered a data breach. <\/span><\/p>\n

The average cost of fixing a data breach was nearly <\/span>$1 million<\/b>, which does not include lost revenue, brand damage, and legal fines. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This highlights one of the most important considerations in preparing for a data breach: without the right tools at your disposal, a threat could completely slip under your IT security team\u2019s radar. Attacker dwell time could be in the months, especially if an attacker gets ahold of privileged credentials or if users\u2019 inappropriate access is allowed to go unchecked.<\/span><\/p>\n

Preparing for a Data Breach on the Cloud<\/b><\/h3>\n

Identity governance<\/a> on the cloud<\/a>, and identity and access management in general on the cloud, is one of the most challenging cybersecurity concerns of the current digital era. With more enterprises undergoing digital transformations or implementing hybrid IT environments, enterprises need to examine the identity and security challenges that come with these innovations: \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

98%<\/b> of European companies face organizational challenges implementing security in cloud environments, according to a survey by SIEM solution provider <\/span>Sumo Logic<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

63%<\/b> of enterprise respondents say the cloud requires broader technical expertise to understand threats <\/span><\/p>\n

51%<\/b> said staff overload is a challenge for security in their cloud environment. <\/span><\/p>\n

In a statement, Sailpoint\u2019s Chief Product Officer Paul Trulove said \u201cIT leaders face an uphill battle. Hackers are increasingly more sophisticated and more organized, and governments are adding new layers of complexity with regulations like GDPR.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYesterday\u2019s security strategies are simply not sufficient to address these security and compliance requirements. Implementing a comprehensive identity governance<\/a> program helps organizations answer the critical questions<\/a> of who has access to what, who should have access to what, and how is that access being used, providing the much-needed visibility into today\u2019s hybrid, constantly evolving IT environment.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

So in preparing for a data breach, remember the golden rule: this is serious. There is no easy answer. But with the right tools, you can avoid being one of these statistics: all of the most dedicated credential-stealing hackers will be turned away by the mere sight of an IAM<\/a> or IGA solution on your IT environment.<\/span><\/p>\n
