Midsize Swiss enterprises often demonstrate a preference for cybersecurity solutions and services that are locally based, ISG Provider Lens™ report says

Swiss enterprises that are feeling an increased risk of AI-enhanced cyberattacks are looking for solutions and services that can provide equally sophisticated cybersecurity protection, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm.

The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Cybersecurity - Solutions and Services report for Switzerland finds that although advances in AI and quantum technology could lead to new and more devastating threats to Swiss enterprises, a growing number of cybersecurity providers are poised and ready to fight fire with fire. Enterprises in Switzerland increasingly expect these providers to implement innovative solutions, including AI, automation and proactive prevention services, to stay ahead in the race against cybercriminals, the ISG report says.

“Many Swiss companies, especially midsize ones, are suffering from a shortage of cybersecurity specialists,” said Uwe Ladwig, managing director, ISG Switzerland. “That is why their IT managers are turning to external services, such as security operations centers, for assistance.”

Concerns about cybersecurity extend beyond the company’s own protection, the ISG report says. Stringent legal regulations are forcing Swiss enterprises to implement stronger security measures to prevent cyberattacks, the report says. These measures apply especially to data protection, which has long been a top priority in Switzerland, a country known throughout the world for the privacy of its banking, ISG says. The assets of these big banks are heavily dependent on data, the ISG report says.

In addition, there is generally greater trust in Switzerland's own resources, the ISG report says. According to the report, this attitude has been further strengthened in recent years by concerns about the data protection agreement with the U.S. As a result, providers of IT products and IT services that can offer those services in Switzerland are attracting greater interest from Swiss enterprises, ISG says. According to the report, this applies especially to the operation of solutions, such as cloud solutions and security operations centers. Midsize Swiss companies, in particular, seem to attach considerable importance to what is commonly referred to as “Swissness,” and are apt to give an edge to locally based providers, the ISG report says.

“Midsize Swiss enterprises often have distinct cybersecurity requirements,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “When looking for a provider, they consider communication and cultural aspects as particularly important in the decision-making process.”

The report also examines how what was once just considered IT security has steadily evolved into corporate security.
