Dear Readers,
In the dynamic enterprise digital landscape in Asia Pacific, there are many technology developments and trends that are taking centre stage as rapid digital transformation sweeps the region. This poses many questions for leaders — how are they planning their tech investments in accordance with dominant trends? What are some smart strategies to shape IT budgets? Which tech investments are going to reap the most ROI? Are enterprises ready for 2025?
In order to get a detailed understanding of the dominant enterprise technology trends in the region this year, we launched the ETCIO SEA Enterprise Technology Trends 2024 Survey in July.
The survey highlights that cybersecurity leads the pack in the maximum investment in 2024. Given the number of increasing threat attacks and the increasing use of AI by cybercrime perpetrators, no wonder cybersecurity has emerged as the top priority. 62% of organisations surveyed revealed that their maximum investment will be channelised into cybersecurity, with another 15% stating it will be focussed on cyber talent.
Further, while increasing digitalisation is connecting the world like never before, paradoxically, the increased cybersecurity investments only make it fair to conclude that impending geopolitical differences and the onset of large-scale cyber warfare will make our world even more fragmented. As the dawn of October every year brings with it the gusto to uphold the principles of the Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we uncover which security measures leaders are advocating the most for in 2024, and how they’re constructing their strategies for the future.
We hope this thirty-first edition of CIO Watch helps you stay at the forefront of all the developments in the field of enterprise tech.
Happy reading!
