Egnyte’s recent independent cybersecurity study found that only 64% of organizations had incident response plans. Without such plans, companies are extremely susceptible to potential cyber-attacks, and the stark business reality is that they take much longer to recover. Unfortunately, there are daily examples of major data breaches where a particular company’s incident response could have been managed more effectively.

Businesses want irrefutable proof that the lineage and integrity of their critical documents are sound. Typically, this requires implicit trust in centralized systems and audit processes, but this framework runs counter to the current trend of using decentralized value chains. To address this contradiction, Egnyte is excited to announce a new way for its users to certify documents—a document stamping service that addresses an essential need for many businesses in highly regulated industries.

Egnyte recently gave a sneak peek of exciting new features and capabilities that will be incorporated into the platform in the coming months. These upgrades underscore Egnyte's commitment to helping companies control data risk, reduce IT cost and complexity, and delight end users. The latest look at the roadmap was delivered in a series of webinars as part of the summer edition of State of Egnyte.

Egnyte just released its Cybersecurity Trends for Mid-Sized Organizations report, a mid-year update to its annual Data Governance Trends Report. The study provides key insights into how mid-sized organizations manage cybersecurity amid rapidly increasing cyberthreats. The survey of IT executives underscores their concerns about cyber insurance premiums, content sprawl, incident response plans, and more.

This month, Egnyte is excited to announce the completion of some major milestones of its Egnyte UI redesign project. Other updates in June include security and governance improvements, a new eTMF app for Life Sciences, a new version of the Desktop App, additional FileGuard app functionality, a fully upgraded Egnyte for Outlook integration, and more.

Pre-pandemic, the life sciences industry had settled into a pattern. The average drug took 12 years and $2.9 billion to bring to market, and it was an acceptable mode of operations, according to Nimita Limaye, Research Vice President for Life Sciences R&D Strategy and Technology at IDC. COVID-19 changed that, and served as a proof-of-concept for how technology can truly help life sciences companies succeed and grow, Limaye said.

Every day, your users access dozens of documents they need to do their jobs. However, many users fail to take basic steps to protect sensitive documents from leaving the organization. In sports, when a team loses the ball out of bounds, they have to go on defense. The same thing happens in business when you lose critical documents.
