Description

In today's hyper-connected world, the explosion of IoT devices is reshaping the cybersecurity landscape—but are businesses keeping up? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Paul Savill, Global Practice Leader of Networking and Edge Compute at Kyndryl, to explore why traditional IT security strategies are no longer enough. With IoT-related cyberattacks rising at double-digit rates year over year and the global number of IoT devices projected to reach 25.4 billion by 2030, enterprises face mounting challenges in securing their networks. Paul shares insights into the biggest threats organizations are grappling with, including the growing risks of social engineering attacks, outdated infrastructure, and the widening gap between IT and OT security. With 44% of enterprise technology now considered "out of life" and unsupported by vendors, businesses are unknowingly leaving themselves vulnerable to increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. We also discuss Kyndryl's cybersecurity training program, which has driven a fourfold increase in employee-reported phishing incidents—a testament to the importance of ongoing education in strengthening enterprise security. Paul highlights the crucial role of Zero Trust and SASE architectures in modern network defense, using Kyndryl's own post-IBM spin-off transformation as a case study for successfully shifting to a cloud-first, AI-driven security approach. How can organizations modernize their infrastructure to stay ahead of evolving cyber threats? What steps should enterprises take to integrate IT and OT security more effectively? And how can AI-powered security tools help businesses navigate this rapidly changing landscape? Tune in to hear Paul's expert take on building a resilient, future-ready cybersecurity strategy.
