Wavestone’s CISO Radar: What to expect in 2025?

After several years of intense investment and the implementation of ambitious cyber security enhancement programs, 2025 will mark the end of a strategic cycle for many organizations. The increasingly challenging economic conditions and the desire of many management committees to rationalize spending will increase pressure on cyber budgets, with stakes remaining high.

IT systems are becoming ever more complex, perimeters less controllable, particularly with the rise of artificial intelligence, regulations are multiplying and specializing, and geopolitical tensions are increasing the overall level of cyber risk. The CISO will therefore face a major challenge: maintain, or even strengthen, security while optimizing available resources.
