Bitsight Reports 50% Growth in APAC Amid Rising Demand for Cyber Risk Intelligence
Bitsight, a provider of cyber risk intelligence, reported a 50% year-over-year growth in the Asia-Pacific region as of Q3 2025, following the successful completion of Luminate Exchange Japan 2025. This flagship event welcomed nearly 100 cybersecurity leaders to discuss strategies for enhancing organizational resilience through better visibility into cyber risks.
The company attributed its growth to the increasing demand for cyber risk intelligence from enterprises and government bodies within the region. Bitsight's capability to integrate exposure management with real-time threat intelligence enables organizations to prioritize risks effectively and make timely, informed decisions regarding their security postures.
Research presented at Luminate Exchange Japan unveiled key aspects of Japan's cybersecurity environment. Findings indicated that Japan's digital supply chain is heavily concentrated, with numerous providers dominating over 50% of the market. Furthermore, companies in Japan reported 2.8 times more total vulnerabilities per asset than the global average, and an alarming 2.9 times more critical vulnerabilities (CVSS ≥9). Additionally, vulnerabilities likely to be exploited by advanced persistent threats occurred 1.9 times more frequently in Japan than in other regions.
Steve Harvey, CEO of Bitsight, highlighted the expanding digital economy in Japan and the pressing need for actionable intelligence related to cyber risk. Harvey noted that Japan's advanced digital infrastructure faces challenges from concentrated supply chains and elevated vulnerability rates. Homomorphic Encryption (HE) emphasized the importance of transitioning from mere compliance to a continuous, intelligence-driven approach to visibility and risk management.
Bitsight is increasing its presence in Japan by expanding its Tokyo team and forming partnerships with key technology and security providers. Kisso Diall, General Manager for APAC, mentioned that collaborations with notable brands such as Ricoh and Shiseido demonstrate the demand for cyber risk intelligence, crucial for maintaining secure digital frameworks and informed investment strategies.
