HONG KONG, Feb. 12, 2026 – PwC Hong Kong and watchTowr, a global leader in Preemptive Exposure Management, announced an expanded partnership to strengthen organisations’ ability to shift from reactive monitoring to preemptive cyber resilience. PwC will continue to deliver the watchTowr Platform as part of its Managed Security Service (MSS), enabling clients to identify and mitigate real exposures faster than attackers.
The collaboration, which began in early 2024, has supported major clients in critical infrastructure, business, and higher education sectors in Hong Kong. By validating real exposures, prioritising key threats, and tracking remediation efforts, PwC and watchTowr aim to reduce risk before vulnerabilities are exploited.
watchTowr’s technology combines proactive threat intelligence, attacker telemetry, and automated validation to uncover exploitable weaknesses across external footprints. PwC operationalises this capability with 24/7 management, translating technical findings into actionable steps for business and security stakeholders. Its frontline incident response and intelligence integration accelerate time-to-action for clients facing evolving cyber risks.
As part of the expansion, PwC has introduced a dedicated support model, integrated workflow reporting, and CISO-level advisory services. The firm’s DarkLab, now integrated into its Consulting practice, will focus on Managed Security Services, enhancing exposure and attack surface management to align technical defences with broader business transformation goals.
Building on its Hong Kong foundation, PwC and watchTowr plan to extend the managed security service across APAC, including Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, and Thailand, aiming to raise the regional standard for preemptive exposure management.
