Technology has been moving faster each day. But does cybersecurity have what it takes to keep up with the threats?<\/h2>\n

Experts confirm a determined no<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The study shows that despite the quick and agile building of applications, cybersecurity has not kept pace to protect all crucial code and data.<\/h4>\n

A survey, The State of Dynamic Data Center and Cloud Security in the Modern Enterprise<\/em> by Illumio polled 430 security and risk management professionals from all business sizes.<\/p>\n

Respondents revealed that 44% of them has experienced a security breach and suffered the loss of sensitive information. 64% experienced at least one security breach over the past 24 months.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter how much effort an organization expands. Cybercriminals simply have earned the advantage in today\u2019s technology.<\/p>\n

What exactly do we lack? What are our weak points?<\/em><\/p>\n

Intel Security and McAfee released a report further identifying the common defense vulnerabilities of all organizations, no matter what their size.<\/p>\n

Here are the four top causes of IT misaligned incentives and how a Managed Service Provider can improve the situation:<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Performance Indicators <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Executives and operations often fail to see eye-to-eye in measuring security success.<\/p>\n

    Most executives are only concerned with the general performance number and the cost investment associated with the system. Cybersecurity professionals, however, consider the 360 angles of overall breach incidents, penetration testing, calculation cost of recovery, and vulnerability scans.<\/p>\n

    A Managed Service Provider and an in-house cybersecurity professional would come in good terms in measuring a performance indicator as they share the same goal of providing a crime-resistant defense.<\/p>\n

    The difference, however, comes from their resources.<\/p>\n

    An MSP\u2019s first-rate investment and expertise can cut across different clients which means a cheaper form of cost for the business.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      Corporate Bureaucracy <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This corporate structure poses a lot of disadvantages for cybersecurity<\/a> professionals due to the strict constraints of governance, risk management, and structured workflows.<\/p>\n

      Cybercriminals<\/a>, on the other hand, have the flexibility through freeform to further puncture your system while your cybersecurity team is being compromised. Thus, an organization\u2019s disadvantage on an uneven playing field.<\/p>\n

      A clear-cut between an outsourced IT Management or Managed Service Provider and a structured organization can be easily distinguished.<\/p>\n

      An organization\u2019s structure, no matter how corporate it is, would not be relevant in any way in providing a top-notch security protection to your data as it is your MSP\u2019s obligation.<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        Strategy vs. Implementation <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Intel\u2019s report suggests 93% of respondents have plans for expected threats \u2013 but without the confidence of ultimately securing the defense from emerging exploits cybercriminals are presently generating.<\/p>\n

        An in-house IT team can only develop limited strategies with their limited resources.<\/p>\n

        This difference becomes more critical when compared with a fully dedicated Managed Service Provider \u2013 complete with field experts and a more than sufficient technical support to implement your security with the best technology available.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. \n

          Lack of Incentives and Rewards <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Cybercrime pays very well. A successfully breached system is typically paid with an expensive ransom to motivate black-hats.<\/p>\n

          This can also get them their needed technological edge such as the tools and methods in crossing security defenses. Opposed to the restricted and limited systems offered to cybersecurity operators in corporate bureaucracy and other similar organizational structures.
          \nTo simply put, rewards and incentives are the least on an MSP\u2019s priority. Delivering the best performance per minute is not just a bonus rather a requirement for every experienced staff.<\/p>\n

          Cybercriminals are everywhere and your defense would not be breach-proof forever. What you can do is fight back and keep your data protected– not with what you know best, but what a top-notch Managed Service or IT Provider do know.<\/p>\n
