Spire Talks About the Biggest Risk Event in 2019

A cyberattack on critical IT systems could paralyze global supply chains and cripple entire nations.

Gurugram, India, March 01, 2019 –(PR.com)– As the world adopts digitization in every sphere of life, is cybersecurity the biggest risk frontier facing world economies? Leon Perera, Chief Executive Officer of Spire Research and Consulting, shared his insights in Business Times � Singapore.

World economies are ready to adopt technological advancements but the downside is a possible cyberattack on IT systems across any country. These could cripple governmental, financial, healthcare and other systems.

A cyberattack could come from state or non-state actors – terrorists, hostile foreign powers or criminal syndicates.
