Global Threat Report 2021
Cyber is More Than Technology.
As all business becomes more digital, the demand for data, connectivity, resilient and secure IT service grows. The risk of digital hacking grows too.
The need to protect corporate systems should be a concern for every business. Systematically stealing intellectual property and disrupting business remain the strategies of opportunistic or organised hackers. The management of every company faces the task of ensuring that its organisation understands the risks and sets the right priorities, processes and protocols to manage them – that they run a Digitally Assured operation. Digital Assurance is the specialisation of security testing services that assess the security of devices, systems, and applications, as well as entire organisations and their broad infrastructure. The technical jargon involved means this can be a complex task. Technology alone does not address the issue.
Effective management of cyber risk means having the right governance in place and the right supporting processes, along with the right enabling technology. It is about protecting all angles- your employees, customers, data, supply chain and reputation.
C2S recognises the need to have Digital assurance high on your agenda and works in partnership with Official Partners Bamboo Technology Group and other leading organisations to bring you the latest news and updates to help keep your business resilient to threat in the digital age.
We hold quarterly Focus Groups looking at technology and cyber security, open to members and non-members, to discuss and debate the challenges faced, and to bring you the latest updates, drive positive change and make a real difference.
