Insights for New Zealand Businesses

In 2025, digital transformation and AI continued to reshape how New Zealanders live and work, but cyber threats have escalated just as quickly. Globally, AI-powered cybercrime has surged, with phishing volumes up 1200% since 2022. Organisations are now targeted every 39 seconds, causing daily global losses of $18 million.

These trends are mirrored at home, with recent high-profile breaches putting cyber security firmly in the spotlight. Now in its 10th year, our research report reveals that attacks against Kiwi organisations are growing in severity and operational and reputational impact. AI threats, from both external sources and internal risks, are on the rise, complemented by tried-and-tested attack methods. From stolen personal data to financial extortion and operational disruption, the consequences can be enormous.
