Security teams can’t protect what they can’t see or understand. And today, it’s less than ever.
As organizations adopt hybrid infrastructure and cloud-native applications, visibility is shrinking while complexity grows.
Security teams are often left without a clear picture of what’s running, where it’s vulnerable, or how it’s being accessed. This is making early threat detection and rapid response increasingly difficult.
Teams are overwhelmed by high alert volumes, limited context, and rising uncertainty. False positives waste time. Lateral movement often goes undetected. Without knowing what’s happening inside their network, even mature security programs are at risk of missing what matters most.
To better understand these challenges, Illumio commissioned independent research firm Vitreous World to survey 1,150 senior cybersecurity and IT decision-makers across 14 industries and 8 countries. The research set out to uncover how organizations are managing detection and response in the cloud, what’s working, and where gaps remain.
