To uncover the latest trends shaping security and compliance, we surveyed 1,000 business and IT leaders in the UK. Find out why third-party risk and AI are making it harder to build and demonstrate trust. 

The security landscape has never been more challenging

More than half (54%) of UK organisations say that security risks have never been higher. At the same time, just 11% of a company’s IT budget is dedicated to security – but leaders say it should be 17% in an ideal world.

The compliance burden continues to grow

Time spent on compliance tasks increased to over 12 working weeks – up from 10 working weeks last year. UK IT leaders also spend an average of 7.2 hours per week, or 8.9 working weeks a year, assessing and reviewing vendor risk.
