Sector Spotlight
Amid rising cyber risk across all sectors, we explore the cyber and technology threats that most concern leaders from nine key industries in seven countries.
Our survey findings show a push towards strengthening digital and operational resilience, with cyber security and AI investment emerging as the strongest priorities. Financial Institutions, Public Sector bodies, and tech focused industries lead the way in looking to improve their cyber security, while Public Sector and Tech/Media firms show the highest commitment to adopting new technologies like AI. Risk management investments appear more evenly distributed.
Executives across sectors appear to be optimistic about AI’s economic upside, yet most expect related job losses within 18 months, particularly in Transportation, Energy, and the Public Sector. Confidence in cyber attack recovery is also high - strongest in Transportation, Tech/Media, and Manufacturing - but it would appear that they are underestimating the true operational, financial, and reputational impact of such incidents.
