“Many leaders in business, civil
society and government realise
that for the world’s economy to
fully derive the value inherent in
technological innovation, a robust,
coordinated system of global cyber
resilience is essential to effectively
mitigate the risk of cyber attacks.”
Major technology trends like
massive analytics, cloud computing
and big data could create between
US$ 9.6 trillion and US$ 21.6trillion
in value for the global economy.
Destructive attacks will slow
innovation, with an aggregate
economic impact of around US$ 3
trillion.

14. The world will tell you where it’s going, it will tell you what it needs, but it’s
going to be in code, and so you need to be able to connect the dots. It’s
important that global CEOs listen carefully to what the world’s saying, from
each region, and be able to take that input and piece it together to
formulate a vision, a strategy, and the tactics of how his or her particular
company is going to take advantage of where the world is going. And the
ability to decode the messaging is going to be extremely critical.

core business decisions we will not create the
sustainable model of cybersecurity
management that the evolving threat
demands.” Larry Clinton Internet Security
Alliance President.
"Ninety percent of directors participating in
