Our need, thus, facilitates the rise of smart devices and wireless networks. As connectivity barriers go obsolete, it has been estimated that the number of IoT devices will increase by 200 percent to an astounding 46 billion units by 2021. However, these technological advances have paved way for increasingly sophisticated and novel practices by which networks and devices can be penetrated. 'Digital Creatives', be it internal or external, have led to growing cyber threats such as data theft, tampering, phishing scams, direct-access attacks, and other cyber vulnerabilities. With cyber attacks costing firms up to 20 percent revenue loss, organizations choose to remain vigilant in protecting their data.With over 50 percent of the organizations, subjected to a security breach, facing public scrutiny in 2016, jeopardized data most certainly puts a company's reputation at stake. It is estimated that 25 percent of a company's market value is directly attributable to its reputation! Consequently, the cost of a damaged reputation can be massive. Therefore, dynamic, proactive, and impenetrable security practices are paramount for businesses today. Additionally, periodic penetration tests, manifold cryptographic techniques, cognitive computing systems, robust security incident response plan, and business continuity are some of the demands afloat in the market. On this note, after scrupulous efforts from the editorial staff with the help of industry veterans, we present "Top 25 Cyber Security Technology Companies in Asia-Pacific region". Through this list, we shed light on the most prominent solution providers in the security space delivering enterprise-grade customized solutions and helping clients stay abreast with the latest cyber security trends and technologies, for holistic protection.
