In 2025/2026, CISOs must evolve from defenders to strategic growth enablers. This Fujitsu whitepaper outlines a govern, uplift, monitor framework to align cybersecurity with business objectives:
- Govern: Conduct risk assessments, classify assets, and prioritise controls tailored to organisational needs—avoiding "checkbox compliance."
- Uplift: Invest in scalable solutions like automation and targeted training, balancing security with operational efficiency.
- Monitor: Leverage AI-driven tools for real-time threat detection, optimising SOC operations to reduce false positives and costs.
Key takeaways for Asia’s dynamic landscape:
- Speak the board’s language: Frame security investments in terms of cost avoidance, customer trust, and competitive advantage.
- Cloud vigilance: Address misconfigurations in hybrid environments, where a single error can expose critical data.
- Strategic partnerships: Collaborate with experts like Fujitsu for 24/7 monitoring and measurable ROI, as shown in their 87% faster incident response case study.
