Information Security Consultant

Despite 82% of businesses stating that they see cyber security as a high priority for senior management, only 17% of small to medium businesses provided their staff with awareness training on how to detect a potential cyber security threat.

Your staff should be at the centre of your cyber security strategy, but as the largest ‘attack surface’ for your organisation, they can also serve as your greatest defence against cyber threats.

By raising awareness and training your team to be a human firewall, they are more likely to spot potentially malicious activity such as a phishing emails, follow best practice in setting secure passwords and protecting accounts with MFA, and consider the security of their remote working environment.

Cyber security hygiene

Basic cyber hygiene principles can mitigate the majority of cyberattacks, so it is crucial that you build a positive cyber security culture in your organisation. This will keep your staff engaged, encourage them to report incidents without fear of repercussions, and allow for actual or suspected cyber security incidents to be raised, triggering an incident response process.
