The report highlights that despite advances in technology, breaches remain widespread and costly primarily due to human risk—lack of cybersecurity awareness and technical skills—outweighing tooling gaps, with statistics such as 86% of organizations breached in 2024 and 59% taking a month or more to recover. It urges shifting to proactive, continuous, role-based training and certifications to improve detection, response, and recovery, and concludes by positioning Fortinet’s Security Fabric and Training Institute as solutions to close skills gaps and strengthen resilience.
