Discover how transitioning to observability ensures success in managing and protecting hybrid network environments.
Unlock success in managing and protecting hybrid networks—with observability
The 16th Edition State of the Network Study is leading this year’s trends to put network observability, tool consolidation, and Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) into focus.
Organizations are facing the challenges of the ever-evolving state of the network. Network and Security teams are succumbing to the proliferation of cloud-native applications and an increasing complex IT infrastructure. The study provides insights that will help organizations to evaluate the strategic innovations that help answer the question – is observability the key to success in mastering these challenges?
- Adopt observability strategies to stay ahead in a dynamic digital environment.
- Balance your monitoring tools between specialized solutions and comprehensive platforms.
- Prioritize packet and flow data to improve visibility in hybrid cloud environments.
- Converge observability and security practices to enhance CTEM.
Summary of key findings:
- Reduction in Incident Detection Time: Organizations with a formal observability strategy are 3.5x more likely to report significantly shorter times to detect disruptive incidents.
- Enhanced Security: 83% of companies with observability strategies experience enhanced security.
- Improved Compliance: 78% of organizations maintain better compliance with a formal observability strategy.
- Critical Need for CTEM: 88% of organizations report a “critical need” to improve their threat management capabilities.
