Moroccan companies are advancing in cybersecurity maturity, according to the third edition of the AUSIMètre, an annual barometer conducted by PwC Morocco and the Association of Information Systems Users (AUSIM). The survey, released in 2025, assesses the state of cybersecurity in Moroccan enterprises.

The findings indicate that while organizations have strengthened their defenses, new risks—such as ransomware, phishing, and supply chain attacks—are intensifying. The report highlights that 68% of Moroccan companies have implemented a formal cybersecurity strategy, up from 55% in the previous edition.

However, the survey also reveals that 42% of firms experienced at least one cybersecurity incident in the past year, with financial services and telecommunications sectors being the most targeted. PwC Morocco emphasizes the need for continuous investment in threat detection and employee training to mitigate evolving risks.
