Cybersecurity experts are calling on New Zealand businesses to strengthen their defences as cyber threats grow in sophistication.

Key developments, such as AI-driven phishing, the adoption of digital identity wallets, and the shift to passkey authentication, are reshaping the cybersecurity landscape. These trends, combined with rising attack frequencies, require organisations to adopt proactive measures and align with evolving regulatory standards.

  • combating increasingly sophisticated attacks
  • implementing modern authentication methods
  • prioritising board-level involvement in cybersecurity strategies
