AlgoSec has released the results of a survey called “Examining the Impact of Security Management on the Business.” The report has found that the management of security policies is not aligned with business requirements, resulting in a negative impact on organizations.

The figures show that 69% of organizations plan to migrate business applications to the cloud in the next year. However, 67% of them have suffered outages or disruptions during the migration of data center applications.

As far as risks are concerned, most companies (48%) want to view risk by business application, while 30% of them want to see their exposure by network segment.

On the other hand, 18% of the respondents have reported that they spend over one month each year on firewall audits.
