Top 4 tech trend predictions for 2022 (5)
1. Third-party risks will increase
In 2022, third parties will be involved in 60% of security incidents. This means that firms that fail to invest in the risk management trifecta of people, processes and technology will be more susceptible to falling prey to cyberattacks.
Businesses who are proactive in 2022 will include risk assessment, supply chain mapping, real-time risk intelligence and business continuity management in their IT stack (rather than a single application like Excel). It not just your business you must keep in check, but your your vendors and suppliers.
2. One-third of companies will fail at implementing “work from anywhere”
To successfully and securely empower remote workers, organizations need to deliver:
- A strategically designed workplace that allows for seamless working from anywhere
- A leadership team capable of leading a virtual team
- An organization with high levels of digital literacy across all departments
- A thorough mastery of work-from-anywhere concepts
However, a third of the companies still lag in these areas.
3. Cloud takes center stage
Cloud customers will change their business strategy to be completely cloud-based rather than using the cloud for only a portion of their portfolio.
It is predicted that 50% of enterprise organizations will be completely could-based by 2022, spanning all major technology domains such as big data, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things.
4. Tech executives leap from digital to human-centered technology transformations
In 2022, technology executives will concentrate on fixing long-term problems. The best will embrace a customer-centric approach to technology, allowing their organization to quickly reconfigure business structures and capabilities to meet future customer and employee needs with adaptability, innovation and resilience.
