Resilienceapac – Under Attack that’s the harsh new reality for organizations across the Asia Pacific, where cyberattacks driven by artificial intelligence have jumped 29% in the last year alone. This startling data, revealed in the 2025 Cyber Risk Report by Aon, highlights a growing digital crisis fueled by increasingly sophisticated and automated threats.
These aren’t just traditional breaches. Using AI, attackers can now generate convincing phishing emails, mimic executive voices through deepfakes, and develop malware that adapts in real-time. As digital transformation accelerates across the region, so too does the exposure to these intelligent and often invisible threats.
The report underscores that industries such as finance, healthcare, and logistics have become prime targets not only for data theft. But for operational disruption on a scale previously unseen.

Under Attack and unprepared. According to Aon, a staggering 98% of risk leaders across the region admit they are not ready to combat these AI-enhanced attacks. Despite increasing cybersecurity budgets, the pace of innovation in threat technology is far outstripping organizational readiness.
Many firms continue to rely on legacy systems and outdated response plans that are ill-suited for today’s AI-driven threat landscape. The report warns that this lack of preparedness could lead to greater financial and reputational damage in the near future.
Cybersecurity experts are urging businesses to adopt AI-powered defenses, improve cross-border threat intelligence sharing, and invest in upskilling cybersecurity teams before the gap becomes irreversible.
Under Attack and paying the price. The financial toll of this cyber escalation is becoming clearer. Aon’s report reveals a 233% increase in cyber fraud insurance claims over the past year in APAC. This surge reflects not just the volume of attacks, but their devastating impact.
As insurers tighten coverage requirements and reassess risk profiles, businesses are left scrambling to adapt. The message is urgent: in an era of intelligent cyber threats, traditional defenses are no longer enough.
