Partner Content<\/span> The midmarket matters. JP Morgan estimates<\/a> approximately 300,000 organizations generating $13T in annual revenue. Yet they occupy an awkward position in the security landscape. They’re large enough to be attractive targets with complex digital estates, significant revenue, and valuable data, but not large enough to have the headcount, budget maturity, or tooling sophistication of an enterprise security team.<\/p>\n

Their risk profile warrants enterprise-grade defenses, yet those platforms weren’t designed with them in mind, but they’ve also outgrown tools for small businesses. They are, as Intruder’s new report<\/a> puts it, “the security middle child”.<\/p>\n

Intruder surveyed more than 500 senior security decision-makers at companies with 400-6,000 employees across the US and UK. Confidence is high across the board, but the operational data tells a different story. Teams are under strain despite growing headcount, while a fragmented tech stack adds noise rather than clarity. Conversations about cyber risk aren’t making it to the boardroom.<\/p>\n
