A study from Dimensional Research and RedSeal Networks found that:
- “A majority of agencies will fail to comply with 2012 federal security requirements;” and
- “Only 22% of federal agencies have already deployed mandated continuous monitoring solutions as ordered.”
Moreover, 55% of agencies “stated they do not have the tools necessary to meet the OMB directive or are unaware if they do, making compliance unlikely.”
It should be noted, however, that an “overwhelming majority of respondents at 64% indicated the the continuous monitoring with increased measurement and use of seceurity metrics will improve overall security management.” [Emphasis added]
The study is attached below.
