Technology blueprint for year ahead
Enterprises should prioritize a risk-based approach to cybersecurity and ensure that they have a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy in place to protect their critical assets and data. The cyber security agenda for 2023-24 will depend on the specific needs and priorities of each organization. Below are some areas where organization should focus.
Zero Trust Security: The model assumes that no user, device, or network is trustworthy by default, and access to
resources should be granted only after authentication and authorization.
Cloud Security: With the increasing adoption of cloud services, organizations should focus on improving their cloud security posture. This includes implementing proper identity and access management, encryption, and regular security assessments of cloud environments.
Cyber Threat Intelligence: Organizations should invest in cyber threat intelligence to detect and respond to emerging threats quickly.
Data Privacy and Protection: Organizations should focus on improving their data privacy and protection measures. This includes implementing proper data encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments of data storage and processing systems.
Employee Awareness and Training: Employees continue to be a weak link in cybersecurity, so organizations should invest in regular cybersecurity awareness and training programs to help employees understand the importance of cybersecurity best practices and avoid falling victim to common cyber attacks.
Incident Response Planning: Organizations should develop and test their incident response plans to ensure they can respond quickly and effectively to cybersecurity incidents. This includes identifying key stakeholders, response roles and responsibilities, and communication protocols.
Latest technologies influencing growth
Insights on the latest cybersecurity technologies:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML): AI and ML technologies are being used to detect and prevent cyber threats in real-time. They are effective in detecting anomalies in network traffic and behaviour patterns that can indicate a potential security breach.
Cloud Security: Cloud security technologies such as cloud access security brokers (CASBs), cloud firewalls, and data loss prevention (DLP) solutions can help secure cloud-based assets.
IoT Security: IoT security technologies such as network segmentation, device management, and encryption can help secure IoT devices.
Zero Trust: Zero Trust technologies such as multifactor authentication (MFA), network segmentation, and endpoint detection and response (EDR) can help secure the network from unauthorized access.
By adopting these cybersecurity technologies, enterprise can enhance their security posture and protect against the ever-evolving threat landscape.
