The construction and real estate industries have rapidly evolved over the past decade, embracing digital tools for project management, building designs, tenant management, smart-building automation, cloud storage of contracts, and remote collaboration. While this digital transformation has improved efficiency, it has also drastically expanded the “attack surface” for cyber threats. What used to be largely paperwork, field visits, and physical locks is now data stored in the cloud, IoT-enabled building systems, and dozens of connected devices. For property managers, developers, and real-estate business leaders, this shift means cybersecurity is no longer an IT concern, it’s a fundamental business risk. Ignoring it can lead to project delays, financial losses, and reputational damage.
