ISG to Study Manufacturing Industry Service Providers
Information Services Group ( ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining mid-tier and specialist service providers that use AI and analytics to enhance manufacturing companies' efficiency and resilience amid rising tariffs and logistical challenges. The study results will be published in a comprehensive ISG Provider Lens ® report, called Manufacturing Industry Services and Solutions — Mid-tier and Specialist IT Firms, scheduled to be released in January 2026. The report will cover companies offering services for design and development, smart factories, supply chain management and digital transformation. Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the report to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm's buy-side clients. Global manufacturing is grappling with immense complexity as trade and tariffs, geopolitical tensions and supply chain fragility lead companies to accelerate their digital transformations. Manufacturers are investing in digital supply chain tools such as AI and blockchain to enhance transparency and flexibility. Mid-tier and specialist IT providers play a significant role in these efforts. Mid-tier providers focus on delivering agile engineering and industry-specific innovations to a small number of verticals, while specialists focus on niche capabilities for building tailored, highly responsive solutions. 'The complexity of global manufacturing in 2025 demands agility and resilience,' said Iain Fisher, director, ISG Provider Lens Research. 'Mid-tier IT firms and specialists are pivotal to manufacturers' modernization initiatives, providing innovative solutions that enable clients to use digital tools to navigate economic and geopolitical challenges.' ISG has distributed surveys to more than 100 mid-tier and specialist IT providers to the manufacturing industry. Working in collaboration with ISG's global advisors, the research team will produce four quadrants representing the services and solutions enterprises in this industry are buying, based on ISG's experience working with its clients. The four quadrants are: Design and Development Services, evaluating providers assisting manufacturers in the entire production process, including design, quality management and compliance. Providers focus on partnerships with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and original design manufacturers (ODMs), rapid prototyping, digital twins and software testing to enhance adaptability and accelerate development cycles. Smart/Digital Factory Services, assessing providers offering Industry 4.0 technologies, including virtual factories and model plants, to enhance efficiency, reduce costs and optimize shop floor operations. The providers are assessed on their ability to integrate OT and IT for smart manufacturing, ensuring operational agility and advanced technology expertise. Supply Chain and Aftermarket Services, covering providers offering supply chain and aftermarket services to manufacturing companies. They utilize AI, automation and blockchain to streamline processes, enhance decision-making and optimize CX. This approach makes possible new business models in service lifecycle management and subscription services. Technology, Transformation and Consulting Services, evaluating providers offering consulting and digital transformation solutions and services. The providers are assessed on their ability to drive end-to-end transformation, align IT models with evolving business demands and implement diverse strategic solutions globally across the value chain. A report generated from the study will cover the global manufacturing industry services market and examine products and services available globally. Swadhin Pradhan, assistant director and principal analyst, ISG Provider Lens Research, will serve as author of the report. A list of identified providers and vendors and further details on the study are available in this digital brochure. Companies not listed as manufacturing industry service and solution providers can contact ISG and ask to be included in the study.

Australian Firms Unify Cybersecurity as Threats Increase
A growing number of enterprises in Australia are taking a centralized, cloud-based approach to cybersecurity amid rising threats, many of which involve AI, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group ( ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm. The 2025 ISG Provider Lens ® Cybersecurity — Services and Solutions report for Australia finds that Australian organizations face increasingly sophisticated, AI-powered attacks but are hobbled in defending against them by overlapping cybersecurity solutions that fail to share information with each other. Many companies are simplifying their defenses while adopting AI tools for more effective, efficient security. 'While AI is starting to significantly change the way Australian companies operate, in the wrong hands, it can also cause serious harm,' said Michael Gale, partner and regional leader, ISG Asia Pacific. 'Fortunately, service and solution providers are using AI to help enterprises detect and prevent attacks.' Use of AI can expose organizations to malicious interference in the training of AI models, which can make models less reliable or cause them to produce biased or inaccurate predictions, ISG says. Organizations in Australia are also increasingly concerned about a growing category of threats enabled by generative AI, especially through voice cloning and the creation of deepfake images, videos and audio clips. These can be used to steal money, extract sensitive information and damage reputations. Narrative attacks use these methods to create false or misleading narratives, including spreading misinformation about vaccines or elections. In response, Australian companies are strengthening identity protection and integrating AI into security operations, the report says. GenAI and agentic AI are increasing the efficiency and productivity of security teams and helping enterprises address the shortage of cybersecurity skills. Cloud security has emerged as a top priority for cybersecurity leaders in Australia after companies rapidly migrated to the cloud to enable remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, ISG says. Security was often a secondary consideration in these transitions, so organizations kept traditional perimeter-based cybersecurity architectures in place. Now, many are taking a more distributed approach, focusing on endpoints and preventing cloud misconfigurations and vulnerabilities. Enterprises in Australia have often ended up with multiple tools for endpoint detection and response (EDR) and identity and access management (IAM), along with many dashboards that lack integration, the report says. Increasingly, cybersecurity leaders in these companies are narrowing down their defensive systems to one or a few cloud-based platforms. 'Australian companies are trying to do more with less in cybersecurity,' said Andrew Milroy, lead author of the report. 'Reducing complexity, minimizing overlaps and engaging with a core set of qualified partners helps to mitigate risk.' The report also examines other cybersecurity trends in Australia, including rising expectations for data retention and the recent extension of national cybersecurity requirements to more industries. For more insights into the cybersecurity challenges facing Australian enterprises, along with ISG's advice for addressing them, see the ISG Provider Lens ® Focal Points briefing here. The 2025 ISG Provider Lens ® Cybersecurity — Services and Solutions report for Australia evaluates the capabilities of 97 providers across six quadrants: Identity and Access Management (Global), Extended Detection and Response (Global), Security Service Edge (Global), Technical Security Services, Strategic Security Services and Next-Gen SOC/MDR Services. The report names IBM as a Leader in five quadrants. It names Accenture, CyberCX, Deloitte, DXC Technology, Fujitsu, HCLTech, NTT DATA, PwC, Thales and Wipro as Leaders in three quadrants each. Broadcom, EY, Fortinet, Infosys, Kyndryl, Microsoft and Palo Alto Networks are named as Leaders in two quadrants each. Cato Networks, Check Point Software, Cisco, CrowdStrike, CyberArk, Forcepoint, KPMG, ManageEngine, Netskope, Okta, One Identity (OneLogin), Ping Identity, SailPoint, Saviynt, SentinelOne, TCS, Tech Mahindra, Telstra, Trellix, Trend Micro, Versa Networks and Zscaler are named as Leaders in one quadrant each. In addition, TCS is named as a Rising Star — a company with a 'promising portfolio' and 'high future potential' by ISG's definition — in two quadrants. AC3, BeyondTrust, HPE (Aruba) and Sophos are named as Rising Stars in one quadrant each. In the area of customer experience, PwC is named the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2025 among cybersecurity service and solution providers. PwC earned the highest customer satisfaction scores in ISG's Voice of the Customer survey, part of the ISG Star of Excellence™ program, the premier quality recognition for the technology and business services industry.
