These are all key questions when it comes to understanding the threat landscape.
And Verizon’s Data Breach Investigations Report is one of the longest-running research studies in the cybersecurity industry.
This year’s report is the 18th edition, and it tracks over 20,000 incidents and 12,000 breaches.
But the DBIR is more than just a threat report. It has evolved, and is now both a source of advice to security teams, and a key tool for benchmarking security performance between businesses, and across industries.
We invited Ashish Khanna, who runs the security solutions and consulting practice at Verizon Business, to discuss this year’s report, with editor Stephen Pritchard.
