“We are proud to be recognized as a Leader in this IDC MarketScape. Organizations across Asia Pacific are navigating an increasingly complex landscape shaped by AI, evolving cyber threats, and expanding regulatory requirements. I believe this recognition underscores the importance of helping clients build resilience, strengthen trust, and address cybersecurity challenges through a combination of deep local market knowledge, regional delivery capabilities, and global cybersecurity expertise.”
Commenting on PwC, the IDC MarketScape states that, Organizations should consider PwC as a PSS partner that can combine deep regulatory and governance expertise with hands-on technology implementation and architecture support, particularly in highly regulated industries such as financial services. It is also a strong fit for large, multi-market enterprises that need their PSS partner to flex between independent assurance work and direct delivery of large-scale technology and security transformation programs, backed by a global network, in-region delivery centers, and capabilities spanning cybersecurity, privacy, and regulatory risk.
“As organizations accelerate the adoption of AI and emerging technologies, cybersecurity is becoming increasingly central to how they drive innovation and create value. Our focus is on helping clients embed security, trust, and resilience throughout their transformation journeys so they can embrace new opportunities with confidence while navigating an evolving risk landscape.”
On PwC’s strengths, the IDC MarketScape states ’Customers highlight PwC’s ability to translate a global cybersecurity practice into governance and delivery tailored to their specific situation, with a thorough framework and process defined for them. PwC also ensured engagement and took the customer’s priorities and focus areas into account to build a fit-for-purpose, compliance- and regulatory-ready cybersecurity foundation spanning both governance and implementation’.
“Effective cybersecurity today requires more than managing threats. Organizations need an integrated approach that brings together governance, risk management, technology transformation, and operational resilience. By combining these capabilities, we help clients strengthen digital trust, respond to changing business demands, and position themselves for sustainable growth.”
