Enterprise Defenses Recovered at the Edge and Collapsed Inside

Picus Labs' Blue Report 2026 analyzed 338M+ attack simulations across production environments in H1 2026, finding perimeter prevention rose from 62% to 69% while post-compromise interior prevention was only 37%. Reconnaissance was stopped just 10% of the time and credential theft ~22%, while noisy lateral movement techniques like Sharp-ServiceExec and SMBExec were blocked ~90% of the time.
