South East Asia’s prominence as a global and regional hub for finance, commerce and other business services is fueled by technology innovations across domains that influence the other regions of Asia-Pacific. This has made it equally vulnerable to cyberattacks.
According to a survey report, 84% of organizations in South East Asia were victims of ransomware attacks between March 2022 and March 2023. The country had the highest ransomware attack rates worldwide during this period.
In 2024, we anticipate the prevalence of cloud technologies, DevOps, big data, adaptive AI, 5G, API, SaaS, blockchain, and environmental, social and governance technology, which will have a cascading effect on cybersecurity.
ISMG’s Cybersecurity and Business Transformation Summit centered around the theme, “Leadership, Strategic Innovation and Cybersecurity Defense,” addresses the key challenges that IT and security leaders face. The event aims to explore the implications of these challenges and offer strategic and tactical approaches to implement technologies and employ robust defenses to protect critical systems from cyberattacks.
As enterprises increasingly adopt artificial intelligence to drive technological advancement, the associated risks have also risen exponentially, challenging them to evaluate the level of risk they are willing to accept to accomplish their business goals.
A successful business transformation will largely depend on the organization’s ability to balance customer convenience, innovation, offense and defense with the use of the right tools, technologies and best practices.
Join ISMG’s Cybersecurity and Business Transformation Summit to gain insights into how leaders are spearheading excellence across technology implementations, crafting unique user experiences and establishing a cyber-resilient enterprise that leverages innovation for business growth. The summit will cover topics, including managing risk and preparing for the generative AI era, the impact of APIs on the future of business governance, building custom-built IT architectures, unlocking innovation through CIO leadership, responding to ransomware attacks, developing risk mitigation plans against new forms of attacks, implementing effective authentication mechanisms, and more.
The summit will also delve into the diverse trends and opportunities in the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity and business transformation.
You can also earn CPE credits by attending the summit.
