Comments from Fujitsu - New Arbor Networks & Ponemon research
May 2015 by Fujitsu
Following the announcement of new research from Arbor Networks and the Ponemon Institute, revealing how the time to identify advanced threats is 98 days for financial services, and 197 days for retail, please see below comments from Rob Lay, Enterprise and Cyber Security Solutions Architect in UK and Ireland at Fujitsu:
“Although traditionally banks and retailers have extremely good security posture, due to the amount of customer data they hold, it is clear that security is still a serious problem for these organisations.
“Businesses need to feel confident in their security and should put greater investment into tools to help combat these advancing threats and provide better visibility – rather than allowing them to dwell inside the network. Solutions such as multi-layered security to help combat both volumetric and stealthy attacks, alongside better cyber hygiene, will go a long way in cutting down advanced threats in their path.
“This also shows that businesses need a well-defined incident response process in place so that as soon as any breach or incident is detected, it can be quickly and effectively resolved so that there is as little ongoing disruption to the business as possible.”
