Findings of an inspection of over 100,000 endpoints in over 50 organizations of various sizes within a variety of industries confirmed that all of them were experiencing breaches in security and compliance. Typically, 10-35% of endpoints demonstrated some kind of threat or compliance issue. The most notable findings of the 2010 study were a dramatic rise in unmanaged machines and miss-configured anti-virus software and other third-party agents. The insidious nature of the problem and the extent to which it exists proved to be an eye-opener to CIOs. Many expressed amazement at the statistics that surfaced in the report. The 2010 study is the fourth annual audit of this kind conducted by Promisec, recognized by Deloitte in 2010 as one of Israel’s fastest growing technology companies. Promisec provides agentless technology that easily and reliably delivers visibility into 100% of servers and endpoints. Organizations without Promisec’s checks and balances capabilities can expect that over 20% of endpoints will not be covered with the agent-based solutions they have purchased.
