Could blame culture be cybersecurity’s next Achilles heel?
Brief
By Myles Bray , CEO of CyberSentriq .
When it comes to cybersecurity, discussions often centre on technical capabilities, tooling and attacker tactics, but often overlooks the employees and security teams the strategy is intended to protect.
The reality is that most critical business functions from staff payroll to procurement and more have now moved online across digital applications, cloud environments and CRMs. With this comes the intense responsibility of ensuring they work as intended and that they are secure from outside threats.
That raises fundamental questions for business leaders and security teams: what is your attitude to a successful attack, and how do your teams learn from internal mistakes?
If the answer is to simply fire or punish the employee, then that risks overlooking the issue entirely.
