Operations teams are frustrated and stressed due to „a façade of program maturity, “ as each level of security is buffering the level above from many stress-related issues in an effort to appear more efficient, according to a new study. This results in an „overinflated opinion of program security program maturity, “ said the authors of “ A Day in the Life of a Cybersecurity Pro, “ a study commissioned by Bay Dynamics. To understand what management and personnel working in cyber-security, fraud, risk and compliance do to support operations, Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) surveyed 400 North American respondents. Surprisingly, lack of budget was only a minor frustration. Rather, a dearth of people was a top concern, but the report said that is a symptom of a much larger security problem. The respondents range from vice presidents to C-level executives to the frontline operations staff. Fifty-three percent work in very large enterprises (VLEs) , 19 percent in enterprises, and 27 percent in the midmarket. They represent banking, finance, insurance, manufacturing, healthcare, retail and wholesale infrastructure, professional services and the federal government.
