Asia-Pacific Cyber Safety Landscape Report 2026
Presented by bolttech
bolttech’s Asia‑Pacific Cyber Safety Landscape 2026 explores how consumers across the region are navigating cyber risk as digital threats continue to escalate. Based on a survey of 3,850 consumers across 11 Asia‑Pacific markets, conducted with independent research agency Blackbox Research, the study uncovers a clear disconnect between how safe people feel online and how they actually behave.
Key findings include:
- 85% of consumers rate their online safety habits as good, yet only 44% consistently practise strong cyber hygiene
- 39% report having experienced cybercrime – with most incidents resulting in financial loss
- 92% are concerned that AI‑driven scams will become harder to detect
The research also points to a shift in mindset. Cybersecurity is no longer seen as an individual responsibility alone. Nearly one in two consumers now expect institutions – including insurers, banks, telcos and technology providers – to play a more active role in protecting them online. This underscores growing demand for simple, embedded protection solutions that fit seamlessly into everyday digital life.
