decentralised and slow . To make matters worse , the exponential increase in complexity brought about by remote working has left IT departments grappling with outdated systems . The ability to manage complexity , however , ultimately requires technology that is capable of handling it , and AIOps does just that .
As we emerge from the worst of the pandemic , competition is fierce . Organisations that fail to leverage the power of prediction in AIOps will get left behind . not all technology and processes associated with maintaining a mature Security Operations Centre will start to move outside the organisation . Companies will see a benefit in a partner more able to maintain a modern security solution stack , assist in evaluating and adjusting defence posture on an ongoing basis and better allow organisations to focus time and effort on their core business .

They will need to use subscriber data in order to glean business insights and improve the overall experience for subscribers . Ensuring the right blend of flexibility , convenience and customisation through subscription-based models has never been more important .

The continued rapidly changing face of the cyberthreat landscape coupled with a confusing , fast-moving cyberdefence vendor landscape forces even the largest companies to rethink their ability and appetite to maintain cyber operations in-house . While I expect to see organisations retain control of traditional , tried and true frontline defences such as enterprise antivirus and firewalls , most if
In 2022 and beyond , larger organisations with distributed data environments will implement a data mesh architecture to minimise data silos , avoid duplication of effort and ensure consistency . Data mesh will create a unified infrastructure enabling domains to create and share data products while enforcing standards for interoperability , quality , governance and security . It will drive more self-service data infrastructures and an increasing use of models using Data-as-a-Service .
