Key Findings
• 9,996 discrete security issues were analyzed .
• An enterprise storage & backup device has on average 14 vulnerabilities
• Out of 14 vulnerabilities , 3 are high or critical risk
The 5 most common types of risks include :
1 . Insecure network settings 2 . Unaddressed CVEs 3 . Access rights issues ( over exposure ) 4 . Insecure user management and authentication 5 . Insufficient logging & auditing
The research scope has significantly increased compared to the last report ( by more than 65 %).

Most frequent , and other significant findings are discussed in more detail below .
On average , an enterprise storage & backup device has 14 security risks , out of which 3 were of high or critical risk rating ( i . e ., could present significant compromise if exploited ). While this finding was similar in the previous report , there was a change in the types of issues detected , as further discussed below ).
Similar to the previous report , weak correlation was observed between geographic location and storage & backup security maturity . This means that similar issue frequency and severity were observed in all environments regardless of their geographic location . p
Just over 60 % of organizations were from the Banking sector . The remaining industries included Healthcare , IT Services , Media , Shipping Carriers , Financial Services , and Telecommunications .
702 enterprise storage & backup devices were analyzed ( an increase of 66 % from last year ), and a total of 9,996 discrete security issues ( e . g ., vulnerabilities and security
