What are Common Concerns in Security Team Preparation?

Debbie Gordon highlights the surprise many organizations face with unknown OT assets and the increasing regulatory pressures driving boards to ask the right cybersecurity questions.

Here Are 4 Common Concerns in Security Team Preparation:

  1. Lack of Training and Skills: Security teams often face a gap in training and skills, particularly with evolving threats and new technologies. Continuous education and hands-on training are essential but can be difficult to maintain.

  2. Resource Limitations: Many organizations struggle with limited resources, both in terms of personnel and budget. This can lead to understaffed teams and insufficient tools to properly defend against threats.

  3. Keeping Up with Evolving Threats: Cyber threats are constantly evolving. Security teams must stay up-to-date with the latest attack techniques and threat intelligence, which can be a significant challenge.

  4. Compliance and Regulatory Challenges: Security teams must navigate various compliance and regulatory requirements, which can be complex and time-consuming. Ensuring adherence while maintaining strong security practices is a common challenge.
