The hard truth that companies must face is that there is no way that cybersecurity risk can be fully eliminated. On the other hand, there are steps that organizations can take to prevent many attacks or mitigate the consequences if any such attack occurs. A recent survey by Microsoft and Marsh provides some valuable insights into how businesses perceive some of these challenges.

While 79% of respondents of the study, called 2019 Global Cyber Risk Perception Survey, have made cybersecurity their top-tier priority, they are quite unsure as to how to best address the issue. In addition, the study – which canvassed views from 1,500 business leaders across the globe – shows that almost a quarter of the companies asked had “no confidence” in responding to and recovering from cyberattacks.

Even though more and more companies are starting to approach cybersecurity as a top-tier issue, there is still a great disparity between how cybersecurity is perceived and how it is approached in practice.
By extension, it can be safely assumed that many organizations across the world have yet to ensure they’re well-equipped to counter the growing cybersecurity threats.
