Since organisations have moved from an operating model that was largely static to a hybrid world, they need to have defences across five pillars to address the new and unique cybersecurity challenges. The pillars are identity, devices, network, application workloads and data, explains Tay Bee Kheng, president for Asean at Cisco, at a media briefing earlier today.
Nearly nine in ten (85%) companies in Singapore expect a cybersecurity incident to disrupt their business in the next 12 to 24 months.
However, only 14% are in the “mature” level of readiness needed to be resilient against today’s modern cybersecurity risks, according to the Cisco Cybersecurity Readiness Index: Resilience in a Hybrid World report.
