The State of Network Traffic Analysis

Modern organizations have seen a massive expansion of their cyber terrain with the integration of business systems, information technology, and operational technology that is fundamentally transforming the effectiveness and efficiencies of business operations. Unfortunately, this integration of business systems and technologies that are enablers of digital transformation will expand the attack surface and potentially accelerate the speed and damage of attacks.

As part of Fidelis Cybersecurity’s ongoing research efforts, we are asking cybersecurity practitioners to participate in our 2020 State of Threat Detection and Response Survey.

Correlation between cyber terrain and exploitable attack surface is leading many organizations to question whether they have the right cybersecurity tools deployed to provide visibility of their network traffic. This is consistent with key findings of computer science or computer engineering State of Threat Detection and Response 2019 report, which found that 69% of respondents believe their attack surface grew as a result of additional cloud applications, higher levels of network traffic, and a higher number of endpoints (especially with the rise in BYOD devices), enterprise IoT and mergers & acquisitions. This same report also found 49% of respondents did not have holistic visibility, while only 12% strongly agreed that they had full visibility of their cyber terrain.
