Strengthen your human firewall

With various prevention tools and security solutions used to protect IT networks in companies and organisations against external attacks, cyber criminals use targeted methods that focus on human behaviour.

After all, people are responsible for whether a cyberattack is successful or not. Most successful attacks are the result of a conscious or unconscious inside job.

In theory, the majority of people working digitally should know what safe behaviour on the net looks like. Yet users continue to write down passwords or store them electronically without protection, bypass security measures when those get in their way, or exhibit unsafe behaviour online.

Therefore, the goal of a good corporate strategy must not be only to create awareness of the dangers online, but to bring about a sustainable change in behaviour and thus a culture of cyber security.
