Summary

Organizations are showing a persistent identity recovery readiness gap, with only 24% testing disaster recovery plans every six months and 24% never testing at all. That shortfall raises the likelihood of longer outages and broader access loss after identity-focused cyber-attacks. At the same time, ITDR adoption is climbing, suggesting detection investment is outpacing recovery preparedness.

    Quest Software survey highlights identity recovery readiness gap

    Initial Disclosure

    Quest Software’s global survey of 650 IT and security practitioners and executives finds that only 24% of organizations test identity disaster recovery plans every six months, while 24% never test recovery plans at all. The findings say organizations that regularly rehearse recovery tend to experience shorter outages and lower disruption during identity-related incidents, even as ITDR adoption continues to grow.
