Organizations urged to improve implementation of cyber resilience measures

A PwC poll of 4,042 business and technology executives from 77 countries has found that just 2% of organizations have fully implemented cyber resilience actions across all areas surveyed. The 2025 Global Digital Trust Insights survey found that critical areas lacking implementation include the establishment of a resilience team; the development of a cyber recovery playbook for IT-loss scenarios; and the mapping-out of technology dependencies. Only 15% are measuring the financial impact of cyber risks to a significant extent. Another significant issue highlighted in the report is the limited involvement of chief information security officers (CISOs) in key business activities. Less than 50% of CISOs are involved to a large extent in strategic planning on cyber investments, board reporting, and overseeing tech deployments. The findings underscore the need for a more strategic, enterprise-wide approach to cybersecurity. Organizations are urged to address the identified gaps in resilience, CISO involvement, and risk quantification to better position themselves to face the evolving threat landscape.
