According to The Next Platform, many CISOs are deploying data security posture management (DSPM) to solve a visibility problem. The report identifies this as the main reason security leaders bring DSPM into their organizations.
The same source is careful to note, however, that visibility alone is not the value. The report does not spell out what the additional value should be, but it makes clear that simply seeing data is not an end in itself. For CISOs, that distinction matters when justifying the investment and measuring success.
