Cyber Resilience Survey
A research study conducted by IMA India in association with Microsoft India
In the digital business landscape, data-related vulnerabilities are rising. Escalating breaches prompts global organisations to reassess their risk management strategies. To tackle this, comprehensive solutions are needed beyond traditional security measures. A robust cyber resilience framework is vital that not only prevents incidents but also provides an action plan to counter them when needed.
To gain a deeper understanding of cybersecurity resilience, IMA India, in collaboration with Microsoft, conducted a survey in June 2023. The survey gathered insights from over 60 multinational corporations, both foreign and Indian, representing various industries. It focused on CFOs' strategies regarding cyber and endpoint security, investment trends, the prevalence of breaches and attacks, and their implications for organisations.
