Opportunity Watch: Spotlight on cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is the top investment priority among organisations of all sizes around the world. With the hyperspeed of AI and cloud, the industry is reshaping every day, and absolutely no one is immune. Organisations of all sizes are vulnerable.  

In fact, in Arrow’s Opportunity Watch report released in Q2 2024, we cited a jaw-dropping stat from the Identity Theft Resource Center: A majority of SMBs (73%) have experienced a cyberattack, data breach or both within the past 12 months!1 From cybercriminals capitalising on AI to scale their operations and make their move faster to the use of older attack methods that modern detection systems aren’t suspecting, the vulnerabilities are limitless and growing in sophistication.  

According to Gartner®, “worldwide end-user spending on security and risk management is projected to total $215 billion in 2024, an increase of 14.3% from 2023.”2 As an IT service and solution provider, there is tremendous opportunity for you to support your customers’ evolving security, risk management and risk mitigation needs and their desire to stand up zero-trust environments.
