How Compliance Teams can use MITRE ATT&CK Framework to Their Advantage
Security Boulevard, December 7th, 2022
It's enterprise organizations vs. the Big Bad Hackers, and the news is not good. During Q3 2022, approximately 15 million data breaches were reported worldwide.
IBM reports that it takes an average of 287 days for an enterprise to uncover a data breach and then another 80 days to contain it. The damage done in these extended timelines results in the average data breach costing an enterprise $4.35 million (and 2x that number if your business happens to be based in the US). Double ouch.
It's not that enterprises aren't investing in cybersecurity. They are. To the tune of $460 billion by 2025, according to the global cybersecurity company Kaspersky. But despite this spending, organizations lack the practical guidance to accurately assess whether their current security controls can mitigate against cyber threats. And that's where MITRE ATT&CK Framework comes in.
