JAKARTA - Kaspersky's study entitled "Improving resilience: cybersecurity through an immune system," reveals how the organization manages cybersecurity and prepares itself for future challenges.
The study surveyed 850 IT professionals in charge of cybersecurity in major companies across Europe, America, Asia Pacific, Russia, and the Middle East.
Globally, 76% of companies believe there are "slight" or "some" areas where security can be increased, while another 22% advocate a significant increase.
Globally, when asked to identify the weakest aspects of their cybersecurity system to improve, respondents mentioned various operational and technical challenges. The most common issues include:
Among other critical weaknesses of their current cybersecurity systems recorded by respondents is the high risk of systemic failure following violations (22%), over-complex IT/OT environments (21%), and outdated threat intelligence (20%).
This global trend also occurs in Asia Pacific, where regional experts also identify key vulnerabilities in their cybersecurity systems.

The most expressed concerns include less reactive protections able to detect threats proactively (29%), high risk of systematic failure after violation (27%), and challenges in managing different security solutions (26%).
Operating expenses also continue with an excessive time-consuming manual process (24%) and a complex IT/OT environment (24%) making it difficult to implement effective protection measures.
"This research confirms what we have seen on the ground, that true resilience needs not only better tools but also better design thinking," said Adrian Hia, Managing Director for Asia Pacific at Kaspersky.
