Navigating the Cybersecurity Landscape in Ireland: Microsoft Insights and Actions

Sponsored Navigating the Cybersecurity Landscape in Ireland: Microsoft Insights and Actions

Despite these challenges, 74% of organisations haven’t reduced their cybersecurity spend and 57% conduct regular cybersecurity training. However, a significant gap exists in strategic processes with just 44% performing risk assessments and 38% employing a multi-layered defence strategy. The study also points to a potential complacency with 26% of organisations indicating a lack of IT security infrastructure investment planned for the coming year.

However, the integration of AI comes with its own set of challenges. Security teams grapple with managing disparate tools and a scarcity of skilled talent. Microsoft’s recent strides in unifying incident experiences through Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender XDR mark a significant leap toward cohesive and efficient cybersecurity strategies.

That said, this lack of awareness extends to the majority being unsure about their organisations having investment or a roadmap for NIS2 compliance. The Directive mandates a baseline of minimum-security measures for digital service providers and operators of essential services, highlighting the urgency for organisations in Ireland to prepare for its implications.
