Reducing cybersecurity budget a ‘high-risk strategy’, said Saros Consulting co-founder.
Irish businesses show a split approach to security, with only half of the surveyed IT leaders admittedly increasing their cybersecurity budget, while one in four reduced spending for 2026.

The insights stem from a new Saros Consulting report carried out by Censuswide, which surveyed 200 IT decision-makers in organisations in Ireland with more than 250 employees.
