SANDY, Utah, Jan 31 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) — According to new research by Opengear, a Digi International company (NASDAQ, DGII, www.digi.com), 57% of network engineers expect their organizations’ investment in AI for network management to increase by more than 25% over the next 2 to 3 years. And 49% of CIOs (Chief Information Officers) and CSOs (Chief Security Officers) agree. Yet, 70% of engineers believe the expected increase in investment is not fully sufficient to meet business goals.
The survey, which polled over 1,000 CIOs, CSOs, and network engineers across the UK, US, France, Germany, and Australia, explores the perspectives of leadership and technical teams regarding AI in network management and cybersecurity. While both groups recognize AI’s potential, differences arise around how to address barriers and priorities for implementation.
