In 2022, ransomware attacks, among the most common threats, declined in number but grew more sophisticated, the report says. Local governments that suffered security breaches faced an average of five months of downtime.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThe U.S. public sector is a major target of cybercriminals,\u201d said Nathan Frey, partner and lead, ISG Public Sector, for the U.S. \u201cAgencies need to take an integrated approach, often in partnership with providers, to assure constituents that their data is safe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition to increasingly advanced ransomware operations, which have forced agencies to strengthen data backup and recovery, SLED organizations face ongoing threats from internal errors and sabotage, while rapid cloud migration requires them to implement new protection measures, the report says.<\/p>\n<p>\nA growing number of U.S. public entities are responding to new dangers by implementing zero-trust frameworks for protecting data and IT assets, ISG says. Shifting from traditional perimeter-based strategies to this approach, which challenges all users and devices attempting to access agency resources, has proved a complex migration for agencies and universities with a mix of private and government-issued devices.<\/p>\n<p>\nU.S. government organizations face particular difficulties assigning ownership of cybersecurity, the report says. Each agency\u2019s structure tends to be different from others, but there is a common need for agency leaders to take responsibility for cybersecurity investments and outcomes, which can affect both internal and constituents\u2019 data, even in agencies that have a chief information security officer (CISO), ISG says.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cPublic agencies need to be proactive at all levels to counter increasing threats,\u201d said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. \u201cThe whole organization needs to have security-minded attitude.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe report also explores other cybersecurity trends in the U.S. public sector, including the growing adoption of edge computing, extended detection and response (XDR) solutions and advanced identity and access management (IAM).<\/p>\n<p>\nFor more insights into the cybersecurity challenges facing the U.S. public sector and advice on how to address them, including working more closely with cloud services providers, see the ISG Provider Lens\u2122 Focal Points briefing <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fresearch.isg-one.com%2Freportaction%2FFocalPoints-Cybersecurity-US-PublicSector-2023%2FToc&amp;esheet=53466965&amp;newsitemid=20230719886293&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=here&amp;index=3&amp;md5=cc76ae779e02039fe98a623fda482159\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe 2023 ISG Provider Lens\u2122 Cybersecurity \u2014 Solutions and Services report for the U.S. Public Sector evaluates the capabilities of 77 providers across six quadrants: Identity and Access Management, Extended Detection and Response (XDR), Security Service Edge (SSE), Technical Security Services, Strategic Security Services and Managed Security Services \u2013 SOC.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe report names IBM as a Leader in five quadrants.
