Cyber Attacks

PRO-ACTIVE MEASURES TO MINIMIZE THE CYBER THREATS TO YOUR ORGANISATION.

Self: Assessments Ask Cybersecurity provider/ IT Head, for the following:

• Are security risks to my business different in different locations? How so?
• Where are my third- and fourth-party vendors located?
• What regulations are affecting my business and those of my third-party vendors?
• Are we expanding? Will our cybersecurity risks expand as well?

• Then, determine if your team has the resources necessary to ensure the protection of consumer data. If they don’t, who can you entrust with the responsibility of securing your environment? Finding a trust managed services provider might be the next step.

• In the end, though, financial, corporate, eCommerce, institutions are responsible for protecting their organization from attacks by using multi-factor authentication internally and enabling device patching to address different vulnerabilities.

• What security measures do we need in these different regions?

• Since I am not a Cybersecurity expert, perhaps I understand the hackers' behaviour and their 7 types of attacks, they usually d.
• 80% of attack has been initiated from China, Bulgaria, Russia, Bolivia, since the unethical hackers, mostly from the above regions. I am not blaming any Government or any entities, mentioned above countries.

 Unfortunately, the reality is that 60 % of cyber-attacks, come from inside the company. Financial firms and financial services were in the top three sectors targeted by insider attacks, according to that same IBM report.

From disgruntled employees to poorly-compensated bank tellers, 75% of those internal attacks were intentional. These employees can offer up their credentials to a hacker, or simply decline to seriously review cybersecurity concerns due to poor morale. This makes the employee one of the top cybersecurity threats to the financial corporate sector.
