Problem
Cyber threats have become a major obstacle to business continuity, and 2021 saw threats impacting organizations across the globe in many ways - from ransomware attacks taking down national critical infrastructure and interrupting key food supply chains, to espionage actors operating across the Asia-Pacific region, to the mass leaking of data stolen from the dozens of Australian companies publicly compromised by ransomware gangs. Compounding the already-challenging operating environment caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, these threats put Australian executives on notice. (PwC, 2022)
