Cybersecurity Ventures estimated that the global cost of cybercrime would reach $10.5 trillion USD annually by 2025, and ransomware would cost its victims around $265 billion annually by 2031.

Presumably, the money is flowing to fund cybersecurity strategies at most mid-sized to large organizations. But due to challenges in quantifying the ROI of cybersecurity solutions, chief information security officers (CISOs) are facing reductions in their budgets. Furthermore, factors contributing to cybersecurity value, such as saved costs from avoiding data breaches, securing customer trust, and brand reputation, are often overlooked.

Today, the question every company should be asking is not whether a cyberattack will occur, but how ready they’ll be when it strikes. The answer lies in shifting toward future-ready security, a strategic approach that enables an organization to become Breach Ready, Board Ready, and AI-Powered, making cybersecurity measurable and future-proof.

Dipesh Kaura, a thought leader with more than 24 years of cybersecurity experience, breaks down the three pillars future-ready security in his recent Voice & Data article. Read it and map out your future cyber defense.
