Nordic Cyber Resilience surveyed
Organizations investing more in cybersecurity as threats rise
More than half (54%) of the respondents surveyed* across Finland, Norway and Sweden report that their organization has experienced at least one cyberattack in the past year that caused serious disruption. Nearly nine out of ten (87%) anticipate the number of attacks to further increase in the coming years, yet only 32% feel very confident in their organization’s ability to detect and respond to incidents.
“While cyberattacks are seen to be increasing, only half of respondents signify their organization have a clear plan for how to handle them. Organizations that have faced cybersecurity attacks are understandably feeling most prepared for future threats and have confidence in their ability to detect them,” says Sigrun Hansen Bock, Head of Cybersecurity Services at Tietoevry Tech Services.

"Organization's ability to prevent and recover from cyber-attacks builds trust in an increasingly technology-dependent society. According to the survey, almost nine out of ten Finnish respondents expect cybercrime to increase. It's great to see that 75% say their organization has increased its investment in cybersecurity compared to a year ago," says Jari Pirhonen, Tietoevry Tech Services, Head of Security.

"Although Norwegian businesses and the public sector are increasingly aware of the threat, there is a need for more collaboration and greater ownership at senior management level to increase resilience to attacks on society's digital infrastructure," says Sigrun Hansen Bock, Director of Cyber Security at Tietoevry Tech Services.
