Q&A DON’T BLAME IT ON THE TECH → Innovation WHAT IS YOURHOT TOPIC? Cybersecurity trends in technology, organizations, and society emphasize the changing landscape we face. They teach us that the problem does not lie with technology. WHYDOES IT MATTERNOW? It matters now more than ever because everyone is talking about digital transformation, web 3.0, the metaverse, cryptocurrencies – but only from a value proposition perspective. What about their unintended consequences?

Any initiative in the digital transformation journey, by definition, increases the attack surface, thus the cybersecurity risk. As organizations are investing in these technologies,

executives must include security considerations by design.

Technology is not the problem in the fight against cyber threats.
