Businesses are becoming more aware of digital risks

Businesses are becoming more savvy when it comes to digital risks. That’s according to Dubai based technology research firm Gartner’s latest report, which surveyed 964 respondents in large organisations across seven countries between February and April 2015. The survey reveals that high levels of publicity regarding cyber security incidents are also making IT risks a board-level issue. Respondents also indicated that an increasing understanding of cyber security is going beyond the traditional realm of IT, into areas such as operational technology and Internet of Things security.
