Three in Four Organisations Are Not Testing Identity Disaster Recovery Enough
More than 75% of organizations delay identity disaster recovery testing beyond six months, raising risks amid increasing AI-driven cyberattacks, Quest Software's survey of 650 IT leaders finds.
- A survey of 650 global IT and security leaders found more than 75 percent do not test identity disaster recovery within six months, and 24 percent never test plans.
- The survey found rising AI-driven attacks linked to a 57 percent increase in incidents, with expanding attack surfaces, regulatory changes, and an estimated 82:1 machine-to-human identity ratio complicating ITDR readiness.
- Survey participants also reported 92 percent of respondents see ITDR benefits, 79 percent trust AI tools for ITDR, and 78 percent cite proactive threat management as the main driver.
- Survey results show organisations lacking recovery validation over-rely on preventative controls, raising acute risk since attackers gain immediate access when identity systems are compromised; Quest Software's customer base extends this risk to major enterprises.
- Since last year, 75 percent of respondents report organizations delay identity disaster recovery testing; Quest Software highlights rising AI threats and vendor support for faster recovery.
