Australia is found to be much more advanced than most of its peers in the
Asia Pacific region. The country has recently
undergone a strong awareness process, driven by the tsunami of ransomware that
Australian companies have been victim to in 2016, as well as the largely
publicized security failures, such as the IBM Census event. Consequently,
Australian companies have increased their security budgets and revamped their
strategy, in a hope to catch up on their European or American peers.
‘’Australian organizations do not have the security maturity, nor the
skills, to cope with today and tomorrow's threat landscape. Building strong
relationships with trusted providers, carefully selected based on the company's
assets and maturity, will be critical for their survival", says Lydie Virollet, Market
Analyst for IT Services and Cybersecurity at IDC Australia.
