IT vs. Execs: The Cybersecurity Confidence Clash Heating Up
Non-IT leaders are brimming with confidence about thwarting cyberattacks, but IT pros aren’t buying it. Ivanti’s research reveals a glaring disconnect, with IT folks feeling their non-IT counterparts just don’t grasp the cyberthreat risks. Turns out, confidence isn’t contagious in the boardroom!
Hot Take:
When it comes to cybersecurity, the non-IT C-suite leaders are like the Titanic’s captain declaring the ship unsinkable while the IT crew is busy patching up iceberg-sized vulnerabilities. Spoiler alert: confidence doesn’t stop cyberattacks, but patching and strategy do!
Key Points:
- 60% of non-IT C-suite leaders are confident in their cyber defense capabilities.
- Only 46% of IT professionals share this confidence.
- Both sides agree that vulnerability management is misunderstood.
- Leadership priorities are undermining effective patch management.
- Generative AI (genAI) is complicating the cyber threat landscape.
