IDC Predicts

That enterprise cybersecurity spending in ASEAN will exceed $3.4 billion by 2026, growing at a 13–15% CAGR from 2024 to 2026. Across Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan), that figure will reach $19.6 billion in 2026 and soar to $30.6 billion by 2029, proof that cybersecurity is no longer a defensive investment but a strategic enabler of growth.

The rules of digital engagement are changing, and trust has become the new currency of business

AI is transforming the enterprise and also redefining the threat landscape. IDC research reveals that more than 76% of organisations in the region lack confidence in their ability to detect and respond to AI-driven threats. With new attack surfaces emerging from GenAI, multi-cloud environments, and hybrid work models, ASEAN’s digital future demands a new mindset, one built on resilience, governance, and trust-by-design.

What You'll Learn

  • Scale AI with confidence by moving beyond pilots to secure, enterprise-wide adoption.
  • Build trusted AI by balancing innovation with governance, risk, and compliance.
  • Strengthen cyber resilience against AI-powered threats across security, data, and infrastructure.
  • Develop a practical AI roadmap that aligns people, processes, technology, and business goals.
