The State of Enterprise Incident Response
This Dark Reading report analyzes how organizations are evolving incident response (IR) strategies in response to increasing cyber threats. It shows a shift from prevention-only approaches to resilience and rapid response, with more resources allocated to IR. Despite improvements, challenges persist, including skills shortages, budget constraints, false alerts, and unclear processes. While many organizations are confident in their response capabilities, fewer feel fully prepared compared to previous years. The report also highlights growing interest in AI for IR, though effectiveness remains mixed. Ultimately, success depends on improving processes, enhancing visibility into affected data, and integrating tools and teams for faster, more accurate response.
