“A comprehensive defensive plan for prevention is required to ensure that your operations remain intact, however, effectively addressing all areas of security to do so is a difficult task…

…It really takes a cultural approach to security, starting with buy-in from executive leadership and extending to all roles in the organization. It requires education on the latest security threats and how individuals throughout the organization can respond defensively to prevent cybercriminals from gaining initial footholds through phishing or password guessing attacks…

…Also crucial is regular penetration testing to validate the organization’s security posture and ensure that no gaps or mistakes have been made that could put the organization at risk.
