Study: 37% of Known Cyber Threats Have No Working Detection Coverage
Dallas and Tel Aviv – September 24, 2026 -- Enterprises have working detections for only 63% of the cyber threats they have already identified as relevant, leaving more than a third of known risks operationally uncovered, according to new research from Conifers based on an analysis of 14,652 detections in live enterprise environments.
The report, titled The Detection Blind Spot, found that detection coverage extended to just 64% of the MITRE ATT&CK techniques relevant to each environment studied. Nearly half of all detections examined, 47%, required attention before they could be trusted to function as intended, despite appearing as deployed or healthy in standard inventory-based reporting.
