Top 5 Cybersecurity Priorities for 2026

In 2026, we’re not just seeing a shift in types of threats, but the speed and complexity of these threats. To stay ahead of this shift, Eric Aslaksen, CISO at ivision, shares his top five cybersecurity priorities for 2026.

  1. AI is changing the speed of cyber attacks: businesses need to use AI as a defense to detect, decide, and respond in real time.
  2. Identity is becoming the primary battleground: hackers are exploiting stolen credentials, creating fake identities, and even spoofing service accounts.
  3. Security shifts & continuous exposure management: organizations need a clear view of what can be exploited right now across cloud, SaaS, endpoints, and third parties.
  4. Ransomware evolves into precision business extortion: attackers steal data, pressure executives, and threaten customers and partners.
  5. Real accountability at the executive & board level: CISOs must clearly explain risk, impact, and recovery in business terms.
