Many companies use several security solutions at the same time. This leads to a high level of complexity. Malwarebytes conducted an international survey of 50 companies on the topic of complexity.
IT departments in smaller companies often have limited human resources. In order to be able to defend themselves against increasingly sophisticated attacks from cyber criminals - such as ransomware - many companies have invested in their security infrastructure. However, this has often increased the complexity of the IT systems - especially when different software solutions are used.
