What happened
OPSWAT and Osterman Research published findings on enterprise file security, noting that 41.7% of organizations reported file-related security incidents in the past two years. These incidents averaged $2.2 million in cost. The study found a significant difference between how organizations rated their file security and what their controls demonstrated in practice.

The research highlights that most organizations lack mature readiness in file security, despite high self-ratings. This gap suggests increased vulnerability to AI-driven threats over the next 12 to 24 months, potentially driving investment in security controls.
