Singapore faces higher security risks as a global AI leader: NetApp

49% of tech executives identified data management and infrastructure investments as top future investment priorities.

As an AI-leading country, Singapore faces a higher incidence of AI-driven security challenges than AI-lagging nations.

In a report, NetApp said data privacy and security concerns have remained top challenges in the city-state, with nearly twice as many security issues compared to AI-lagging countries like Germany, France, and Spain.

It noted nearly half (49%) of Singapore's tech executives identified data management and infrastructure investments as their top future investment priority.

Meanwhile, approximately three-quarters of respondents emphasise the importance of reducing their carbon footprint, with 57% acknowledging AI's "high" or "extremely high" impact on sustainability initiatives.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
