Industry preparedness for cyberdefense and resiliency will face significant tests in 2025 and beyond. IDC reports that total spending in Asia/Pacific SMB and midmarket security spending was US$7.6 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5%, reaching USD$12 billion by 2027. The widespread integration of AI in business use cases, the growing interconnectedness of critical infrastructure as part of digital transformations, and the use of AI and data harvesting for future use in quantum computing will all present defensive challenges. However, the industry is preparing to leverage these technologies to counteract threats.

By augmenting cyber defense technologies and services with AI, making current security systems quantum-proof, and equipping the cyber workforce with the necessary skills and resilience for unknown and emerging threats, the industry is set to strengthen its defenses against a new breed of adversaries.

The Security Summit & Awards will bring together leading security experts, researchers, and practitioners to explore the pivotal role of AI and quantum-proof technologies in securing our future.
