The 26,500 Hidden Cyber Threats in Southeast Asia: What Businesses Need to Know

In this episode of Enterprise Explores, we dive into the state of cybersecurity in Southeast Asia’s financial sector. Tenable’s recent report uncovered over 26,500 vulnerable internet-facing assets across the region’s top banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) companies. Assets with the potential to be exploited if not managed.

We speak with Geoffrey Jakmakejian, Security Engineering Manager at Tenable, about these findings, the current state of cyber exposure and management, and what businesses can do to strengthen their defences.

Tune in to learn:

- Key vulnerabilities in Southeast Asia’s BFSI sector and their implications.

- The biggest cybersecurity and hygiene gaps businesses need to address.

- Practical steps to improve exposure management and protect critical assets.

- Emerging cybersecurity trends that companies in Southeast Asia should adopt.
