With the changing security landscape, the most daunting task for the CISO and CIO is to fight an ongoing battle against hackers and cybercriminals. Bad actors stay ahead of the defenders and are always looking to find new vulnerabilities and loopholes to exploit and enter the business network. Failing to address these threats promptly can have catastrophic consequences for the organization. A survey finds that, on average, it takes more than five months to detect and remediate cyber threats. This is a significant amount of time, as a delayed response to cyber threats can result in a possible cyber-attack. One can never forget the devastating impacts of the Equifax breach in 2017 and the Target breach in 2013 due to delayed detection and response. This is concerning and highlights the need for proactive cybersecurity measures to detect and mitigate rising cyber threats. Amidst this, it\'s also crucial to look into why it is challenging to detect cyber threats. Why do organizations fail to detect cyber threats? Security teams are dealing with more cyber threats than before. A report also confirmed that global cyber attacks increased by 38% in 2022 compared to the previous year. The increasing number and complexity of cyber-attacks make it challenging for organizations to detect them. Hackers use sophisticated techniques to bypass security systems and solutions - like zero-day vulnerabilities, phishing attacks, business email compromises (BEC), supply chain attacks, and Internet of Things (IoT) attacks. Some organizations are unaware of the latest cyber threat trends and lack the skills and resources to detect them. For instance, hackers offer professional services like ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) to launch ransomware attacks. Surprisingly, two out of three ransomware attacks are facilitated by the RaaS setup, but still, companies fail to have a defensive strategy against them. Enterprises relying on legacy devices and outdated software programs are no longer effective at recognizing certain malicious activities, leaving the network vulnerable to potential threats. Additionally, the lack of trained staff, insider threats, and human errors are other reasons why many organizations suffer at the hands of threat actors. Besides this, much of the company\'s data is hidden as dark data. As the defensive teams and employees may be unaware of it, the hackers take complete advantage of dark data and either replicate it or use it to fulfill their malicious intentions. Moreover, cloud migration has rapidly increased in recent years, putting cybersecurity at significant risk. The complexity of the cloud environments, poorly secured remote and hybrid work environments, and sharing security responsibilities between cloud service providers and clients have complicated the situation. In addition, cloud vulnerabilities, which have risen to 194% from the previous year, have highlighted the need for organizations to look out for ways to strengthen their security infrastructure.
