Survey: Security and Federal Government

Tripwire and Dimensional Research surveyed 306 security professionals, unveiling the private sector's request for further action from the federal government to ensure the security of its data and systems. So then why have only roughly 49 percent of non-governmental agencies fully adopted the NIST standards? And why do 24 percent of federal respondents believe they are falling behind when it comes to preparedness to face new threats and breaches?
