As geopolitical tensions rise with Donald Trump’s return to the White House, U.S.-China relations are once again front and center, signaling potential ramifications for the APAC region, especially in the realm of cybersecurity. In this episode, we speak with Robert Huber, Chief Security Officer and Head of Research at Tenable and we’ll explore the complex interplay of geopolitical developments and emerging cyber risks, as well as breaking down practical strategies for organisations in the APAC region to safeguard themselves against cyber threats amid this evolving geopolitical landscape.
