What was the impact of decentralised working? An exponential increase in the volume of new operational challenges confronting organisations, addressing the cyber skills gap, the growth of supply chain attacks, and the ever-increasing social engineering scams.

Security awareness is something that is considered to be an essential part of having an effective cyber security programme. 

Now, with European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM) set to begin in October, organisations have a valuable opportunity to increase security awareness among employees so that they’re ready to combat the next generation of online threats.

Below we’re going to look at what ECSM is and how organisations can participate.

Security breaches are part and parcel of running a modern organisation. Research completed by the Clark School at the University of Maryland showed that hackers attack every 39 seconds. With organisations exposed to such a high volume of threats, Incident Response has become just as important, if not more important than threat prevention. 

In 2020, the average cost of a single data breach rose in all industries worldwide to nearly 4 million USD. These breaches were especially costly in the healthcare sector, where costs soared to an average of 7.13 million USD, with energy and financial industries following closely behind at $6 million. 

On 24th March 2021, the UK government published the Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2021, featuring an analysis of 1,419 UK businesses and a review of 2020's cyber threat landscape. The report highlights how the Covid-19 pandemic has made it much more difficult for organisations to protect themselves against modern cyber-attacks while staff are working from home.  

With cyber criminals developing more sophisticated online and offline threats, security breaches are a matter of if, not when. In fact, 65% of security professionals believe they will be dealing with a major breach within the next 12 months, and with the average cost of a data breach totaling over $3.86 million, the stakes couldn't be higher.
