In March 2020, Dark Reading and InformationWeek took a survey of IT and Cybersecurity professionals to understand the relationship between these two teams. They do this survey every year, so it's interesting to see how things changed between 2019 and 2020.

The survey comes at the right time, as companies tighten their belts and look to align organizational priorities and budgets. It's likely that more organizations will emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic with greater alignment between IT and Cybersecurity due to necessity.

Dark Reading will be hosting a webinar on the 2020 survey, also featuring discussion between ExtraHop's VP of Security and Cloud Solutions, Sri Sundaralingam; Shamus McGillicuddy, VP of Research at EMA; and Lee Chieffalo, Cyber Infrastructure Engineering Lead at Viasat.

Register for the Dark Reading webinar to attend live or access the on-demand recording.

We'll cover the results of this year's Dark Reading "State of IT Operations and Cybersecurity Operations" survey and then dig into the pain points hindering closer collaboration between IT and Cybersecurity Operations teams. Specifically, they'll touch on how shared visibility can help break down barriers and make the most of teams and budgets.
