The World Economic Forum and the University of Oxford have published a 14-month long study examining the shift in technology and the impact it will have on the cybersecurity industry. The study is based on the expertise of over 100 leaders in the cybersecurity space, including those in businesses, government, civil society and academia.
The study reports that the future of the cybersecurity industry, as well as that of everyone’s personal data, relies on four main technologies. Artificial intelligence, digital identity systems, quantum computing, and the networking of devices are transforming the basis of cyberspace, which would lead to a shift in the industry as a whole.
