Despite a $15.3 billion investment in African cybersecurity in 2024/25 and improvements in the ITU Global Cybersecurity Index, organisations remain highly vulnerable due to fragmented management of cyber risk and resilience across sectors. A shift from cybersecurity management to holistic cyber resilience, requiring shared accountability among leadership and integrated intelligence, is emerging as critical to address the deeper challenge.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Cyber resilience requires you to unite your leadership in shared accountability and connect cyber risk with business impact to stay operable under attack. Fragmented cybersecurity efforts alone won’t protect your company; act now on integrated resilience intelligence.
