Mimecast’s seventh annual State of Email Security report comes as organizations all over the world grow more skittish over rising economic volatility and intensifying geopolitical tensions. Now is definitely not the time to become lax on cybersecurity.

This year, ClubCISO celebrates the release of its 10th Annual Security Maturity Report, conducted from an anonymous survey of 182 senior executives with responsibility for their organizations’ information security. The report outlines clear trends across the EMEA information security landscape, enabling businesses to benchmark their security investments against peer organizations. The report sheds some light on the current opportunities and challenges of today’s information security leaders.

Our annual State of the Phish report explores end-user security awareness, resilience and risk across 15 countries (eight more than in previous years). The report benchmarks understanding of common cyber threats and defensive tactics and reveals how potential gaps in knowledge and cyber hygiene enable the real-world attack landscape. Most attacks target people before they target systems. That’s why helping users build sustainable security habits is crucial.

The findings in this 2023 cybersecurity skills gap report clearly show that organizations are fighting an uphill battle against cyberthreat— incurring more breaches, in need of skilled professionals, and continuing to struggle to fill key positions.

It’s a horror story that many organizations are familiar with - an employee clicks a link or visits a website, and chaos ensues. At best, it’s just a minor disruption. At worst, business continuity is broken, and an organization’s critical infrastructure is at risk. Regardless of the outcome, managing human risk is a major part of business today. In this report, we dive into what makes workers high risk, where those high risk users spend their time, what are their riskiest behaviors, and what that might mean for your organization’s security.

CyberEdge’s annual Cyberthreat Defense Report (CDR) plays a unique role in the IT security industry. Other surveys do a great job of collecting statistics on cyberattacks and data breaches and exploring the techniques of cybercriminals and other bad actors. Our mission is to provide deep insight into the minds of IT security professionals.

In this Director Sentiment Monitor for Q4 2022, 41% of respondents told us their primary organization has experienced a cyber attack. Interestingly, 36% of respondents said their primary organization had cyber security as a standing item at all board meeting, while 27% said it was discussed quarterly. Among other findings, it is also encouraging that 81% of respondents said their primary organization has a cyber security response plan in place.

This study documents and quantifies how Mimecast protects organizations against threats. Cybercrime affects every organization no matter the size or type, and it’s a threat that is growing and changing constantly.

Our 2022 Business Impact Report looks into what happens specifically to small businesses and solopreneurs following a data or security breach. For the report, the ITRC surveyed 447 small business owners, leaders, and employees to paint a picture of small organizations and individuals that are significantly impacted by cybercrimes, often multiple times in a short period of time.

The SANS 2022 Security Awareness Report analyzes data provided by more than a thousand security awareness professionals from around the world to identify and benchmark how organizations are managing their human risk. The goal of this data-driven report is to provide actionable steps and resources to enable organizations to mature their awareness programs and benchmark them against others.

The State of Remote Work Security Report reveals the status of organizations’ efforts to secure the new workforce, key challenges, and unique security threats faced by organizations, technology gaps and preferences, investment priorities, and more.

The 2021 Cloud Security Report has been produced by Cybersecurity Insiders to explore how organizations are responding to the evolving security threats in the cloud and the continues shortfall of qualified security staff.

The 2022 Cloud Security Report is to uncover how cloud user organizations are responding to security threats in the cloud, and what training, certifications, and best practices IT cybersecurity leaders are prioritizing in their move to the cloud.

This report reveals the latest application security trends, how organizations protect critical applications, and what tools and best practices cybersecurity professionals prioritize to find, fix and prevent vulnerabilities in next-gen applications.

Cyber adversaries and threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated and more frequent. The survey of 297 IT security professionals found that although 82 percent of respondents said they know about the MITRE ATT&CK framework, only 8 percent reported that they are using the ATT&CK framework regularly.

For our survey, we targeted successful women working in varied roles in the cybersecurity community, and we queried them about everything from breaking into the field and gaining career momentum to choosing a specialty and finding ways to remain relevant. In this report, we provide lessons learned and advice on how a women in cybersecurity or a woman wanting to enter this field can lay a foundation to ensure success.

Mimecast’s State of Email Security 2022 (SOES) study sheds light on the gains in cyber resilience that many companies are making, even as it reveals shortfalls and places where there is considerable room for improvement.

The new look at the workforce revealed that the percentage of women in cybersecurity is roughly 24%. While men continue to outnumber women in cybersecurity and pay disparity still exists, women in the field are buoyed by higher levels of education, and are finding their way to leadership positions in higher numbers.

In this, our eighth annual State of the Phish report, we explore user vulnerabilities from multiple angles. We look at issues driven by poor cyber hygiene and those that could result from a lack of knowledge and clear communication. We discuss ways organizations can become more attuned to their risks. And we outline opportunities to build and sustain engaging security awareness training initiatives in the challenging climate.

The CDR is the most geographically comprehensive, vendor-agnostic study of IT security decision makers and practitioners. Rather than compiling cyberthreat statistics and assessing the damage caused by data breaches, the CDR surveys the perceptions of IT security professionals, gaining insights into how they see the world.

This survey report focuses on the current trends in cybersecurity workforce development, staffing, cybersecurity budgets, threat landscape and cyber-maturity. The survey findings reinforce past reporting and, in certain instances, mirror prior year data. Staffing levels, ease of hiring and retention remain pain points across the globe, and declining optimism about cybersecurity budgets reversed course this year.
