Organizations are increasingly experiencing cyberattacks, but very few believe they're prepared to defend themselves, said a study released Wednesday by information technology security association ISACA (http://bit.ly/1mJevFY). One in five organizations polled reported having faced an advanced persistent threat (APT) attack, but only 15 percent said they're “very prepared” for such an attack. Of companies that have been attacked, one-third said they knew the source of the attack. Companies are primarily using firewalls, access lists and anti-virus software to defend against attacks, said the study. Almost 40 percent of organizations aren’t doing user security training, ISACA said. ISACA polled 1,220 organizations in the first quarter of 2014 via email and social media, said a spokeswoman.
