PwC Hong Kong and watchTowr have broadened their cybersecurity collaboration to help organizations strengthen resilience and stay ahead of attackers.
Partnership Growth and Purpose
PwC Hong Kong and watchTowr expanded their alliance to push organizations beyond reactive monitoring to true resilience. The partnership began in early 2024 with major clients in infrastructure, enterprise, and education. Now, it helps these clients find real security exposures faster and reduce risk over time. watchTowr’s Preemptive Exposure Management technology merges proactive threat intelligence and attacker telemetry with automated validation. This approach confirms exploitable weaknesses across an organization’s external footprint. It gives defenders time to act before real-world exploitation begins. PwC scales these capabilities as part of its 24/7 Managed Security Service. The firm turns complex technical findings into actionable steps for security and business leaders.
Executive Perspectives
Jenius Shieh, Partner, Cybersecurity and Privacy, PwC Hong Kong, said:
“watchTowr is an industry leader in understanding how attackers think and act. Our goal with this partnership is to democratize regional security. By combining PwC’s threat intelligence and incident response experience with the watchTowr Platform capabilities, we help clients translate emerging threats into practical defenses. This approach fortifies individual clients and the wider digital ecosystem alike.”
Elvina Liow, VP Global Partnerships and Enablement, watchTowr, commented:
“PwC’s team in Hong Kong knows what it takes to operate security programs under real-world pressure. They trust the watchTowr Platform to continuously validate exposure and to move quickly when threats emerge. Together, we’re helping organizations find real weaknesses fast, confirm what’s exploitable, and reduce risk before attackers can take advantage.”
Regional Expansion and Future Plans
PwC and watchTowr will extend their managed service across APAC markets. This includes Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, and Thailand. The expansion aims to set a new standard in proactive exposure management regionally.
