Akamai report shows microsegmentation reduces ransomware risk and lowers cyber insurance costs

Akamai Technologies Inc. has released a new industry analysis report titled "The Segmentation Impact Study: Why microsegmentation now defines enterprise cybersecurity, risk, and resilience." The study, based on proprietary research from 1,200 security and technology leaders worldwide, highlights the growing adoption and impact of microsegmentation in cybersecurity. Key findings reveal that organizations implementing microsegmentation are able to reduce ransomware containment times and benefit from improved terms on cyber insurance policies. Despite challenges such as network complexity, visibility gaps, and operational resistance, adopters report fewer compromised systems, lower recovery costs, and enhanced business continuity. As a result, half of non-adopters plan to implement microsegmentation within two years, and more than two-thirds of current adopters intend to increase their investments in the technology.
