The report revealed that 55% of organizations struggle to distinguish genuine threats due to alert overload, while 52% still depend on manual workflows. Only 16% of organizations surveyed were considered to have advanced cybersecurity maturity.
As cyber risks rise, businesses are increasingly shifting toward unified, platform-based security architectures to improve visibility, automate Security Operations Centre functions and enhance threat response efficiency despite concerns over migration costs and integration capabilities.
