Despite increased use of two-factor authentication, single sign-on, and biometrics, passwords are still the most common form of authentication. However, when a significant percentage of breaches are caused by weak, stolen, or reused passwords, it's clear passwords pose significant risks that can't be ignored.

You know password management is important. But is your business failing to invest in this easy security and productivity win?
In this Global Password Security Report, we're uncovering the true state of corporate password security around the world. We analyzed aggregated data from more than 43,000 businesses using...
In this report, we provide an overview of current vulnerability disclosure trends and insights into real-world vulnerability demographics in enterprise environments. We analyze vulnerability prevalence in the wild,
based on the number of affected enterprises, to highlight vulnerabilities that security practitioners...
Is it realistic to think the end of our dependency on traditional user names and passwords is in sight?
While user names and passwords may not be phased out in the near-term, eventually there will not be online services that have anything of value that don't offer multiple types of two-factor authentication....
A vulnerability is only as bad as the threat exploiting it and the impact on the organization. Security and risk management leaders should rate vulnerabilities on the basis of risk in order to improve vulnerability management program effectiveness.
Gartner receives frequent inquiries from clients who are...
The security operations center (SOC) faces mountain challenges: lack of personnel, disparate security tools, multiple alerts that must be run down, prioritization of alerts and the transition between incident detection and incident response.
Security affects and is affected by operational and IT considerations....
While organizations have taken countless measures to strengthen the security of their online resources, criminals have begun to eye a far more appealing and lucrative target: the contact center. It's what Gartner calls "an epicenter of vulnerability."
From hard-dollar losses and added overhead to combat the...
By establishing a trusted digital relationship with users, insurers can enable legitimate consumers to apply for new policies and legitimate providers and insurance professionals to log in to their accounts without onerous authentication requirements, while requiring users identified as high risk to fulfill additional...
To deliver a better, frictionless experience, organizations should consider real-time, multilayered, omnichannel identity trust assessments that analyze a wide variety of intelligence - including network, device, environment, behavioral and global intelligence.

Networks are constantly evolving - and so are their attack surfaces. IT security pros must now contend with digital assets like cloud platforms, application containers, web applications, IoT devices, and industrial control systems. For those in critical infrastructure industries, the stakes are even...
This research report examines the difference in time between when a public exploit for a vulnerability is published
and when users actively assess it. These two events represent the first move the attacker and defender make.
The premise of this paper is that this delta is an indicative metric in determining Cyber...
In this report we analyze real-world end-user vulnerability assessment (VA) behavior using a machine learning (ML)
algorithm to identify four distinct strategies, or "styles." These are based on five VA key performance indicators (KPIs)
which correlate to VA maturity characteristics.
This study specifically focuses...
As the modern attack surface rapidly expands, companies must get the basics right. Yet each time a data security breach hits the news, there are reactionary questions are what could have been done to avoid the problem. More often than not these incidents occur because organizations commonly overlook basic security...
When it comes to IT infrastructure, it's fair to say the perimeter has left the premises. In fact,
the perimeter has mostly disappeared. We are living in a new reality, one crowded with new types of dynamic IT assets.
Whether
it's discovering short-lived assets like containers, assessing the state of cloud...
This 2018 Osterman Research Survey Report focused on understanding current security processes and how organizations are working to improve and automate them.
The research was conducted in the US, EMEA and APAC regions with 465 professional respondents who were knowledgeable about security policy management in their...
