Across Asia-Pacific (APAC), digital transformation has led to a surge in the adoption of emerging technologies such as cloud, Internet of Things (IoT), and web-based applications among companies from diverse verticals looking to improve efficiency across every area of business operation. However, as technology adoption rates accelerate, organizations’ IT infrastructure becomes more complex and the threat landscape grows wider and more sophisticated, making security increasingly difficult to manage. This leaves organizations vulnerable to cyberattacks. As such, organizations’ in-house security teams no longer have the skillsets needed to adequately secure their increasingly complex IT infrastructure while simultaneously working to monitor and manage their security operations. Asking them to do so is risky.
The wider threat landscape, increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks, and the lack of qualified security professionals force organizations to engage with cybersecurity service providers to help tackle these challenges. By outsourcing their security operations, organizations gain access to wide-ranging managed security services (MSS), such as 24x7x365 security monitoring and threat management.
Key Takeaways:
1.Learn about the security challenges organizations face today as they undergo their digital transformation journey.
2.Understand the role of MSSPs in helping organizations defend against cyberthreats amid the lack of qualified cybersecurity professionals in the market.
3.Hear advice and recommendations for CISOs when working with managed security service providers.
