SECURING DYNAMIC DIGITAL ROADMAPS: RELOOKING SIGNPOSTS IN IDENTITY, TRUST, AND RESILIENCE
The interconnection between AI and cybersecurity, together with developments in other tech verticals, have blurred lines with astounding speed. Both have overlapping aspects such as data and privacy, and both have been said to be an important base for the successful implementation of the other. Labels may be meaningless but, in this environment, many have pondered the vision of an all-encompassing framework that can best serve the process of what falls under the digitisation umbrella.
The implications can be profound in many areas. Weaponisation of tech and norms of behaviour among nation-states is one. Competition in development pathways for innovation and capacity building is another. Collaboration and competition in AI and cybersecurity-centric domains against the backdrop of big tech pervasiveness will grow in complexity. In managing all these, the evolution of C-suite and other leadership roles in technology and organisations can be bewildering in speed and impact of change.
Within cybersecurity itself, norms, boundaries, and the ecosystem continue to see seismic changes. Attack surfaces and threat landscape features shift on what seems a daily basis. Endpoint definition, the need to include a bewildering array of device devices and third-party products are just some of the challenges that continue to evolve and alter the fundamental demands of a holistic cybersecurity posture. Is this an evolutionary or revolutionary journey, and what is the likely outcome within the context of enabling the transformation journey of organisations?
GovWare will explore the bread-and-butter issues of current cybersecurity challenges and address how fundamentals can be adapted and transformed to help chart the digital future.
