The State of Segmentation for the Ecommerce Sector
E-commerce organizations face heightened risks from sophisticated cyberattacks, particularly ransomware. As the most targeted sector, e-commerce must prioritize effective security measures. Our latest report reveals that segmentation can significantly reduce risk by dividing networks into smaller, manageable segments. However, implementation remains slow due to challenges like lack of expertise and compliance requirements.
The report underscores the transformative impact of segmentation. Organizations that successfully segment six critical business areas can stop ransomware attacks 11 hours faster than those with limited segmentation. Microsegmentation, a software-defined approach, offers enhanced security by dividing networks down to individual workloads and is preferred by 94% of e-commerce respondents.
