👇 Some harrowing stats on cybersecurity you need to read👇 

🔒 74% of CISOs know that human error is the most significant cyber vulnerability in their organizations

🔒 70% of organizational leaders say that a cyber skills shortage creates additional risks

🔒 90% of leaders of organizations that have experienced a breach can attribute the incident at least partially to a skills gap

If nearly every cyber leader knows this reality of the “human side” of cyber… why aren’t organizations doing more about it?

Well, it’s a bit more complicated than that. 

First, leaders ARE taking action

Second, there are a LOT of nuances to this work

Third, recent technology breakthroughs have made this work easier than it was previously

We go through all of these details in the latest Connected & Protected → Read it now.

🔒82% worry generative AI could worsen the problem, according to a KPMG study 🔒

So now let’s talk about what happens when your service providers get hacked.

Major cyber attacks are alarmingly frequent, impacting organizations of all sizes. Nearly half of CEOs aren’t prepared for a cyber attack, and 

If your trusted service providers are getting hacked, how can you stay safe? 

Protexxa’s cyber experts, formerly of Scotland Yard, the CIA, and the RCMP, shared the following tips:

1️⃣ Keep Software Updated: Always accept updates, which often contain crucial security patches.

2️⃣ Reassess Permissions: Revoke access or delete accounts you no longer use to reduce your "attack surface."

3️⃣ Collaborate with Vendors: Engage with their support teams to understand their security measures and recommended actions.

4️⃣ Strengthen Your Defenses: Maintain strong cybersecurity protections like multi-factor authentication and firewalls.

5️⃣ Assess Vulnerabilities: Regularly check for exposed information and fix any issues promptly.

🔒 3 security tasks that make sense for every organization. 🔒

1️⃣ Back-Up Data in Cold Storage: Protect mission-critical data by storing backups offline. In case of an attack, you can quickly shut down networks without data loss.

2️⃣ Implement Verification Processes: Use multi-step verification to prevent impersonation of employees or customers.

3️⃣ Develop a Response Plan: Ensure all leaders know the exact steps to take during an attack, including shutting down networks and contacting authorities.

Small fixes add up over time and although you may never feel 100% protected from cyber attacks, every step in the direction of a more cyber-conscious organization is a huge win in our eyes.
