About half of enterprise endpoint devices pose security risks
By MYBRANDBOOK
According to the inaugural report from Adaptiva and the Ponemon Institute, an average of 48% of devices or 64,800 per enterprise, are at risk as they are no longer detected by an organization’s IT department or the endpoints’ operating systems have become outdated.
61% of respondents said distribution points have increased in the last two years, and the average endpoint has as many as seven agents installed for remote management, further adding to management complexity.
63% of respondents reported that the lack of visibility into their endpoints is the most significant barrier to achieve a strong security posture. 62% of respondents said new OS and application versions are the most difficult to maintain across all endpoints, followed by patches and security updates at 59%, and network settings and connectivity issues at 50%.
66% of respondents said that their organizations don’t have ample resources to minimize endpoint risk. Consequently, respondents indicate they could only stop 52% of attacks with their current technologies and expertise.
Deepak Kumar, Founder and CEO of Adaptiva said, “The plan to invest money in endpoint security content distribution is promising, but it’s only one part of the solution. Throwing more money at more distribution servers will just increase the investment without solving the underlying problem. It will increase management costs without improving device visibility.”
He further added, “IT needs tools that provide organizations with total and complete visibility over their endpoints, with real-time and continuous delivery of content to keep them healthy, patched and secure. This won’t be achieved by the dominant endpoint management solutions in the market today, which still rely on bloated centralized infrastructure, in the cloud and on-prem.”
