BeSecuritySmart! ~ Kineo and CQR join forces

Educate and train employees and stakeholders on best practices to prevent or reduce breaches that target insiders, such as phishing. Think of awareness and action across the enterprise as a human firewall.

Data breaches continue to make headlines around the world. Seemingly, no matter what defensive measures security professionals put in place, attackers are able to circumvent them. No organization is too large or too small to fall victim to a data breach. No industry vertical is immune to attack. Regardless of the type or amount of your organization’s data, there is someone out there who is trying to steal it. Having a sound understanding of the threats you and your peer organizations face, how they have evolved over time, and which tactics are most likely to be utilized can prepare you to manage these risks more effectively and efficiently. (Verizon, 2019 Data Breach Investigations Report.)

According to Forbes; Training and culture are key elements of a successful cybersecurity strategy because so much of the vulnerability an organization faces is from within. Strong security is not just about a chief information security officer’s (CISOs) immediate team; it’s about how strong and resilient the entire enterprise is from a human standpoint. Awareness is a big part of the battle. Incorporating best practices into every nook of the business is another. Educate and train employees and stakeholders on best practices to prevent or reduce breaches that target insiders, such as phishing. Think of awareness and action across the enterprise as a human firewall. (Forbes, 2019 The Importance Of Training: Cybersecurity Awareness As A Firewall.)

 A recent Forbes Insights survey of over 200 CISOs found that talent and training constraints have a significant impact on security organizations. The following security initiatives were seen as CISOs highest priority for funding in the coming year;

  • 14%       Creating a culture of security
  • 14%       Hiring more cybersecurity staff
  • 13%       Better security training of employees
