The report also highlights the growing role of AI in managing cyber threats and how investing in advanced AI-driven security solutions, continuously monitoring AI developments, and fostering a culture of innovation and adaptation within cybersecurity teams can play a significant role in risk management.

'Cybersecurity budgets are struggling to keep pace with the growing sophistication of cyber threats,' said Tony Buffomante, SVP & Global Head — Cybersecurity & Risk Services, Wipro Limited. 'AI offers a solution by helping organizations strengthen defenses while optimizing costs. This allows CISOs to adopt a more outcome-driven focus by prioritizing risk-adjusted returns on investments.
'Wipro's proven consulting-led approach and partnerships in the AI ecosystem and innovation network unlock opportunities to strengthen defenses while optimizing costs. We are helping clients build AI-powered cybersecurity operations that enable them to transform risks into opportunities and achieve a cyber resilient future,' Buffomante concluded.
According to the report, to leverage AI for cyber resilience across the organization, CISOs must work with their peers to get the correct data governance in place.
