Study Background

Why the need for cybersecurity benchmarking?

• Financial and non-financial consequences of a successful cyber attack

• Governance and Technology

• Gain understanding how other peers implement Information Security

• Study results from two different points of view:

– overall results across all participants to provide a thorough and balanced view of the current state of Cybersecurity

– an individual assessment for each participant where individual answers are discussed and compared against other study respondents

5

Key Observations

Despite a strong focus on cybersecurity culture, many organizations do not believe their cybersecurity programs are fully effective45% of respondents reported that they needed to improve security awareness and training

Current employees are the likely cause behind most cybersecurity breachesRespondents reported that current employees were the likely source of 45% of data breach incidents, followed by 22% of incidents caused by hackers and 13% by former employees

Viruses and malicious software are the most common breaches.Respondents reported that infections from viruses or malicious software accounted for 39% of all data breaches, followed by system failures or data corruption accounting for 35% of breaches

45Berkeley Research Group - Cybersecurity Preparedness Benchmarking Study

Key Observations

Most organizations do not have strategies for the emerging fields of the Internet of Things or Big Data90% of respondents do not have a cybersecurity strategy for the Internet of Things, and 86% do not have a strategy for Big Data

Organizations lack confidence in their cybersecurity incident response capability65% of respondents reported having a formal cyber incident response plan, and 60% incorporated regulatory and government notification protocols for breaches. However, when asked if their organization was well equipped to handle a cyber breach, 51% of respondents were neutral or disagreed

Organizations anticipate an increase in information security budgets54% of respondents reported that they expected an increase in their 2016 cybersecurity budget. However, 48% of respondents reported they were neutral or disagreed when asked if leadership allocated adequate budget for cybersecurity efforts

Recommendations

• Review and approve the cyber risk appetite and tolerance at board level; • Ensure the board has sufficient cybersecurity expertise and/or access to such

expertise; • Build cybersecurity in to all activities and develop enterprise-wide cyber risk

management strategies and procedures; • Incorporate cybersecurity within business strategy and risk management

frameworks; • Develop procedures to identify and manage cyber risks associated with

outside vendors, suppliers, customers, utilities, and other external organizations and service providers;

• Undertake testing to include the potential for multiple attacks and the impact of interruptions on critical infrastructure;

• Ensure there is a robust cyber resilience and incident response program; • Pro-actively undertake cyber threat intelligence gathering and ongoing

security analytics;• Invest in your people to ensure there is high awareness and ownership for

cybersecurity across the organisation.
