How complexity causes us to rethink IT and cybersecurity

Digital transformation has injected technology into business processes to make our organizations more effective and efficient. However, a drawback of digital transformation is the complexity created by hyper-connectivity and accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, as organizations rely on a hybrid workforce and face increased complexity, they must rethink their approach to IT and cybersecurity as it relates to:

- Spending on security and desktop services
- Developing branch-of-one architecture
- Ensuring access to talent

In this webcast, IDC’s Frank Dickson emphasizes the need to rethink our approaches to IT and security to proactively address complexity and improve cyber resiliency. Recorded at the Acronis Global Cyber Summit 2020, Dickson draws on the latest IDC surveys of CEOs to reveal how views about risk are evolving and how those changes are influencing how organizations are structuring their security and spending on protection solutions.
