Short-staffed cybersecurity teams contribute to data breaches and cyberattacks levied against their organizations, a survey finds.
Organizations with understaffed IT security teams face a double-whammy – not enough employees to bear the workload and a greater potential they will be hit with a cyberattack or data breach, a new survey found.
The Life and Times of Cyber Security Professionals report, which surveyed 343 global infosec workers, found 22% of respondents cite their IT security team as understaffed and that the shortage of people contributed to a security event at their organization in the past two years.
