Enterprises update their arsenals with new
tools and services to defend against rising wave of more advanced
attacks, ISG Provider Lens™ report says
Enterprises in the U.S. are strategically investing in
cybersecurity services as data breaches continue to grow in number
and sophistication, according to a new research report published
today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading
global technology research and advisory firm.
The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Cybersecurity — Solutions and
Services report for the U.S. finds that data breaches rose
significantly between 2022 and 2023, with healthcare and financial
services firms targeted most often. The federal government and some
states responded with laws and proposals forcing companies to
improve their defenses, making the work of enterprise security
teams even more complex.
“New threats and powerful attack mechanisms have exposed
weaknesses in critical infrastructure at U.S. companies,” said Doug
Saylors, partner and co-leader of ISG Cybersecurity. “CISOs of
leading enterprises are re-evaluating their strategies, focusing on
business resilience.”
While U.S. demand for cybersecurity tools and services grows,
many organizations are rationalizing their security technology
stacks to reduce cost and optimize resource utilization, the report
says. Companies are increasingly deploying AI technologies to aid
in analyzing data to prioritize vulnerabilities and protect areas
where they predict the worst damage.
Several emerging technologies, including quantum computing and
passwordless identity access management, are rapidly gaining
potential. Globally, extended detection and response (XDR) and
security service edge (SSE) are becoming essential enterprise
platforms.
More organizations, especially large enterprises, are
implementing zero trust architectures (ZTAs) in place of
traditional perimeter-based security to shrink potential attack
surfaces and minimize the impacts of breaches, ISG says. This
requires skilled personnel and significant investments in access
controls, identity management and continuous verification.
Large companies with complex supply chains face growing risk
from attacks against third-party vendors linked to their IT
systems, the report says. They are beginning to assess these
vendors’ security postures and take a stronger role in managing
risk across the supply chain.
Many small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are focusing on
fundamental security measures such as automated patch management
and user education, ISG says. For technologies and skills beyond
the reach of internal IT departments, small firms are turning to
managed security services and cloud-based security offerings.
“SMBs have fewer resources and may present smaller targets to
attackers, but many are instituting strong security practices with
help from service providers,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and
global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research.
The report also explores other cybersecurity trends in the U.S.,
including increasing adoption of cybersecurity insurance and
AI-powered advanced threat detection and response.
For more insights into major security challenges at U.S.
enterprises, including the growing difficulty of regulatory
compliance and rising pressure to understand all risks when
adopting new technologies, plus ISG’s advice for addressing these
issues, see the ISG Provider Lens™ Focal Points briefing here.

Services report for the U.S. evaluates the capabilities of 108
