It’s easy to gloss over cyber security. In fact that is what cyber criminals expect, as they’re looking for easy targets.
While you as an individual may have some passing interest to sophisticated cyber hackers, it’s the company you work for that is their target. You might simply be the Rube they use as a conduit to the bigger prize, your employer.
If you read the headlines, you hear about large organizations with complex defences getting hacked. While those organizations make the headlines, they are not the regular targets of well organized cyber thieves. The low hanging fruit to cyber thieves are the millions of small to mid-sized companies that commit a number of security errors that leave them vulnerable to attacks and ransom.
We invited Dominic Vogel and Christian Redshaw, hosts of the new podcast Cyber Monday, to join us for a Conversation That Matters about keeping your cyber secure.
