While human resources and finance departments are the easiest target for social engineering, tech workers pose the biggest risk to networks.

By 2021, more than 55 percent of spending on IoT projects will be for software and services, says Carrie MacGillivray.

The major attacks included WannaCry, ExPetr, and BadRabbit, which all used exploits designed to compromise corporate networks.

Even though a majority of organizations have adopted or plan to adopt IoT technologies within the next year, many are still concerned about cybersecurity threats, says Peter Tsai.

Fewer than half of programmers are confident in the code they write and run, with 60 percent lacking confidence in the security of their applications, says Joe McCann.

Early adopters have training programs in place, Deloitte survey finds

A recent study found that at most firms, two-thirds of the technology budget is spent on 'keeping the lights on' vs. business-advancing initiatives.

But IT personnel too often feel they lack the skills, technology and bandwidth to create the data-centric foundation needed.

A new study finds that 69% of organizations mistakenly think information protection, privacy and compliance are the responsibility of the service provider.

Perhaps of greatest concern, a new study showed that uncertainty is highest among IT security experts, who should therefore be more familiar with the issue.

Firms that give workers ready access to the applications they need are nearly three times as likely to be rated as leaders in digital transformation by staff.

Some 82 percent of companies have experienced at least one unplanned systems outage over the past three years, which lasted an average of four hours.

Optimism about the value of AI-powered applications in the enterprise is high and plans to continue investment in the technology are widespread, a new study reveals.

Businesses are often hindered from moving to a deeper level of analysis, with 42 percent still relying on traditional business intelligence tools, a study finds.

Technology and information management dominate the most wanted hires this year, with seven of the top 10 in the IT and analytics fields.

Data scientists remain among the most sought-after of all workers, and that translates into very healthy salary ranges for several key job roles.

Early adopters of advanced AI technologies are able to reduce fraudalent practices and improve customer service, says Julie Conroy.

The primary uses are for sending alerts, notifications and reminders, marketing messages, streamlining account registration and protecting accounts with two-factor authentication.

Organizations paid $301M to cyber attackers in 2016, and incidents are expected to increase over the next two years.

Many organizations struggle with an overwhelming amount of threat information, coupled with a lack of staff expertise to analyze it.
