Cisco AppDynamics research called “The shift to a security approach for the full application stack.” has just hit the streets. I’ve highlighted some Canadian specific findings.
95% of Canadian technologists admit that the rush to rapidly innovate and respond to the changing needs of customers and users has come at the expense of robust application security during software development, according to new Cisco AppDynamics research, “The shift to a security approach for the full application stack.”
The research reveals that 88% of Canadian technologists report that their organization has experienced an expansion in its attack surfaces over the last two years. As IT teams have accelerated release velocity and built more dynamic applications across more platforms, application security hasn’t kept pace. And 49% of Canadian technologists admit that their organization often ends up in “security limbo” because they don’t know what to focus on and prioritize.
However, Canadian organizations are now looking ahead and are willing to break down the silos within the IT department and bridging the gap between IT operations and security. 45% have already started taking a DevSecOps approach, and 44% are currently considering making the shift.
The shift to a security approach for the full application stack” research was conducted between July and August 2022 and includes finding from 1,150 IT professionals interviewed across 13 markets worldwide, including Canada.
Key takeaways from the report include:
- Top global applications security challenges for 2023 include: lack of visibility into attacks surfaces and difficulty prioritizing threats
- 76% of Canadian technologists report that a lack of application security skills and resources is now an issue for their organizations
- 77% of Canadian technologists feel that their organization is vulnerable to a multi-staged security attack over the next 12 months
- 94% of Canadian technologists believe that it’s important to be able to contextualize security
- More than a third of technologists report that their ITOps teams only collaborate with security teams when there is a potential issue, if at all
- 75% of Canadian technologists state that the implementation of a security approach for the full application stack is now a priority for their organization
