Digital Transformation Leadership

Unexpected challenges await IT leaders unaware of — or unprepared for — shifting risk postures, emerging regulations, or shortcomings in their approach to the cloud.

Digital twins are incredibly useful tools for a range of industries. But they also come with intrinsic risk factors and could create new avenues for attacks unless security is involved when they’re created.

The risk and ambiguity inherent in innovation can make employees shy away from it. Creating an innovation culture where risk-taking is embraced must start at the top.

While the benefits of digitization and advanced analytics are well documented, the risk challenges often remain hidden.

In today’s rapidly changing digital era, innovation has become critical to survival, and to innovate IT leaders must facilitate a shift in mindset at their organization to allow and even embrace a certain amount of risk.

Digital transformation is a disruptive process that often throws companies into uncharted territory for their business.

CIOs, CDOs and CAOs across industries wrestle with establishing a data driven culture and maximizing the value from data while managing the risk.

IoT devices are major security risks, and many companies are not prepared for this new threat.

No project is without its pitfalls, but it’s crucial to remember that these are far outweighed by the dangers of inertia

Risk professionals should seize the opportunity to capitalise on such projects to promote good risk management practice and not take a back seat.

Today, enterprise-scale companies are more interconnected than ever. People, applications, servers, networks, and devices in different departments and even in different parts of the world are constantly exchanging information in both the public and private cloud. That’s not a bad thing. In fact, most organisations strive for this kind of silo-less interconnectivity. Desirable as it may be, however, it’s not risk-free.

Across major enterprises, technological change provides the opportunity to evolve, but it also introduces the unknown. Companies can embrace this through understanding and managing their cyber risk

The C-suite as a whole must consider security and information ownership challenges that digital transformation may bring, as well as the risks, all of which will differ radically as the business model evolves.

Thriving in the Transformative Age is about building a confident and trusted enterprise in order to optimize upside risk as a growth strategy.

Businesses that protect against vulnerabilities and secure their data are more likely to have a successful digital transformation.

Being willing to take risks and embrace uncertainty is vital for the success of digital transformations.
