It also shows Accenture using large acquisitions to scale quickly in operational technology security and broader cyber services. The piece argues that AI-driven threats and flat enterprise budgets are pushing cybersecurity higher on the agenda for global providers. For Indian IT, the pressure now is to expand cyber capabilities faster if they want to compete for larger transformation deals.
