A recent survey from CSI, includes information about targeted attacks, incident response and the impacts of both malicious and non-malicious insiders. It contains details about respondents' security programs, including budgeting, policies implemented, tools used, satisfaction with security tools and budgets, degree of outsourcing, use of metrics and effects of compliance requirements.

Some key findings:

Of the approximately half of respondents who experienced at least one security incident last year, fully 45.6 percent of them reported they’d been the subjects of at least one targeted attack.
When asked what actions were taken following a security incident, 18.1 percent of respondents stated that they notified individuals whose personal information was breached and 15.9 percent stated that they provided new security services to users or customers.
When asked what security solutions ranked highest on their wishlists, many respondents named tools that would improve their visibility—better log management, security information and event management, security data visualization, security dashboards and the like.
Respondents generally said that regulatory compliance efforts have had a positive effect on their organization's security programs.

What Our Clients Say

“I estimate that we cut our monthly operating costs from the two data centers by 50% with IPI’s cloud computing solution,” commented Weber. “Building out the capacity we needed with conventional data centers would have cost at least three times what we’re now spending, and still wouldn’t give us the flexibility to scale up on demand.”

The customized “Infrastructure as a Service” solution that IPI developed for Factor TG has effectively doubled its baseline capacity, and can accommodate spikes of 10X more Web traffic and survey volume than the prior data centers. Weber noted that IPI’s approach is truly enduring. “When a customer’s traffic jumps 300% for a 24-hour period, we’re confident the system can handle it and that our costs will only increase incrementally. And that means our IT infrastructure is no longer an obstacle to growth – in fact, it will help us to grow.”
