Gartner has identified the top 10 technology trends for 2023 that can guide the acceleration of a post digital public sector.
Gartner predicts that by 2025, 75% of government CIOs will be directly responsible for security outside of IT, including operational and mission-critical technology environments. The convergence of enterprise data, privacy, supply chain, cyber-physical systems (CPS) and cloud requires an integrated security approach.
Gartner says CIOs should link adaptive security to broader digital innovation, transformation, national security and resilience objectives.
Among the predictions are:
- Over 75% of governments operating more than half of workloads using hyperscale cloud service providers by 2025
- Over 35% of government legacy applications replaced by solutions developed on low-code application platforms and maintained by fusion teams by 2025
- Sixty percent of government organizations will prioritize business process automation by 2026
- CIOs aligning automation initiatives with current priorities to pursue Digital Transformation – while also optimizing operational costs
By the end of 2023, Gartner says 50% of government organizations will establish formal accountability structures for data sharing with CIOs focussed on value-added and mission objectives when developing data-sharing initiatives.
