This report presents findings from a survey commissioned by Zscaler, which involved 1,750 IT leaders and business decision-makers across 14 markets. The objective of the survey was to understand how organizations are addressing external challenges to resilience in the face of increasing cyber threats and market volatility. The report outlines that while there is a perceived confidence in resilience strategies, many organizations are found to be overly focused on internal controls, leaving them vulnerable to external disruptions. It details the necessity for a 'Resilient by Design' approach, which emphasizes the importance of preparing for external shocks rather than merely reacting to incidents. The report also highlights critical gaps in current resilience measures, including inadequate third-party risk controls and a lack of proactive planning for emerging risks. Additionally, it discusses the rising interdependence on contractors and the need for organizations to modernize their resilience strategies to ensure operational continuity amidst growing external pressures.
