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.
