Here’s a contribution from Orla Forrest at Irish cloud services provider Paradyn.
In this guide, we examine some emerging innovations that are helping organisations to bolster their security in 2019.
In 2019, organisations are facing an ever-growing range of cyber-threats. In fact, according to a 2018 study from Bromium, the cybercrime economy was estimated to be worth $1.5 trillion. As cyber-incidents continue to rise, it is more vital than ever for IT teams to vigilant in their security practices.
Why it is Important to Invest in Cybersecurity?
“There are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked and those that will be.”
- Robert Mueller
Hiscox’s 2018 Cyber Readiness revealed that 73% of companies are just not prepared to respond to a cyber-attack. By not having proper cybersecurity in place, you risk exposing your organisation to a wide variety of threats. In addition to losing money, these attacks could lead to the loss of sensitive data, expensive recovery costs, and reduced client trust. Such attacks becoming ever more frequent, and the increasing sophistication of such attacks means that organisations have a responsibility to ensure that they are using up-to-the-minute security technology.
