Top obstacles and benefits of security framework adoption

I have captured for you a co-sponsored Cybersecurity Frameworks and Foundational Security Controls Survey, which shows 95 percent of organizations face significant challenges when implementing leading cybersecurity frameworks. 

In effect, new survey from TenableSecurity & CISecurity tallied responses from more than 300 primarily U.S. and European IT security decision makers from organizations of various sizes and representing 15 industry verticals to better understand the adoption and maturity of cybersecurity frameworks and their underlying security controls. 
 
According to survey data, three out of the top five impediments to cybersecurity framework implementation were technological in nature, suggesting a need for software solutions that can automate and simplify cybersecurity framework adoption. 

The top five impediments to cybersecurity framework implementation were reported as follows:

1.     Lack of trained staff

2.     Lack of necessary tools to automate controls

3.     Lack of budget

4.     Lack of appropriate tools to audit continuous effectiveness of controls

5.     Lack of integration among tools.
