Mauritius has seen a steady increase in zero trust security adoption, with 65% of enterprises implementing its principles by 2026. This shift enhances defense against evolving cyber threats, especially given the rise in digital transactions and remote work. The cybersecurity budget has also grown significantly, reflecting the government's commitment to strengthening national cyber defenses amid increasing attack sophistication.
