El 94% de los profesionales de TI están preocupados por la creciente vulnerabilidad en sus redes, una estadística que refleja la importancia crítica de la ciberseguridad empresarial en 2025. De hecho, con la descentralización del entorno laboral y la migración a la nube, las empresas enfrentan desafíos sin precedentes en la protección de sus activos digitales.
En la actualidad, la ciberseguridad ha dejado de ser una preocupación exclusiva de los departamentos de TI para convertirse en una prioridad estratégica organizacional. Los cibercriminales están redefiniendo constantemente las reglas del juego, y se prevé que para 2025, el uso de malware impulsado por IA complicará aún más la detección de amenazas. Por esta razón, hemos creado esta guía esencial para ayudarte a comprender y fortalecer tu estrategia de ciberseguridad empresarial.
Cybersecurity ecosystem
The Data Security Council of India has forecast that the cybersecurity ecosystem will expand up to a point where nearly one million professionals will be required by 2025. Additionally, the demand for cloud security skills is estimated to grow by 115% between 2020 and 2025, representing almost 20,000 job openings, Narayan added.
An extensive exercise in reskilling and/or upskilling the existing workforce, believe staffing experts, is one of the ways that telcos can future proof their work.
Indian mobile phone operators are expected to at least double their investments on network security with the 5G roll out expected to spark a surge in network vulnerabilities, which assume critical importance especially for enterprises.
However, it is already proving to be a challenge for telcos to have robust security teams.
“Even if we do not talk about 5G (specifically), the security talent in general in the country is very sparse at the moment. We need to get more (security) professionals in the system”
Bharti Airtel, for example, has been preparing for 5G roll out by upskilling its professionals and offering them certification courses such as CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) and CCNP (Cisco Certified Network Professional). The courses are offered based on skill and eligibility level free of cost.
Companies often neglect to have written standards and policies around their cybersecurity. Why? Because dozens of them are usually needed, covering everything from equipment management to backup procedures, admin credentialing, remote work policies, and so much more. But it’s well worth the effort.
