Addressing cybersecurity skills shortage is a much larger challenge
Kartik Shahani, Country Manager - Tenable India
“With the rollout of 5G in India this year, it is projected that the adoption of IoT and IIoT will accelerate, exposing organizations to more cyber risk than ever. This technology is expected to contribute greatly to the growth of the Indian government’s flagship Make In India initiative, aimed at helping the manufacturing sector grow. This additional cyber risk is especially relevant in industrial environments. If organizations in India utilize devices with poor security configurations, there could be an increase in zero-day attacks due to supply chain vulnerabilities.
Cloud migration among Indian organizations is inevitable, not just for the private sector, but for governments too. The Indian government recently announced its intention towards cloud adoption. This adds more risk if organizations are relying on legacy technologies to secure cloud environments.
In 2023, we anticipate attackers to target cloud-managed service providers. This is because the cloud service provider (CSP) managed service market is projected to grow to $117.65 billion by 2028. While there are numerous benefits to cloud adoption and outsourcing cloud services to an MSP, the opportunities for compromise are also vast. Addressing the cybersecurity skills shortage is a much larger challenge than any single company can resolve. It will require major investments from, and collaboration between, public and private sectors to retrain and retool candidates and a concerted effort on all fronts to attract people into our field.”
