Why is Cybersecurity Important?
Stephane Nappo already gave us the answer: “It takes 20 years to build a reputation and few minutes of cyber-incident to ruin it.”
Our identities are increasingly online. From personal information to health information, to intellectual property, and to the social media networks that we use every day, we are living online.
Furthermore, the supply chains that keep us fed and clothed are all managed through information technology. Individuals and groups are targeting this technology that, basically, defines and supports you in the modern world. They are targeting systems that contain your personal data. In other words, attackers worldwide are targeting you. That said, we must protect information systems.
Business leaders can no longer solely rely on out-of-the-box cybersecurity solutions such as antivirus software and firewalls. Cybercriminals are getting smarter. And their tactics are becoming more resilient to conventional cyber defenses. For example, in 2019, 4.1 billion records were exposed via data breaches. And, in 2020, In 2020, the average cost of a data breach was USD 3.86 million globally, and USD 8.64 million in the United States.
What is Cybersecurity?
Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting critical systems and sensitive information from digital attacks. Also known as information technology (IT) security, cybersecurity measures are to combat threats against networked systems and applications, whether those threats originate from inside or outside of an organization.
A successful cybersecurity approach has multiple layers of protection spread across the computers, networks, programs, or data that one intends to keep safe. In an organization, the people, processes, and technology must all complement one another to create an effective defense from cyberattacks.
People – Users must understand and comply with basic data security principles such as choosing strong passwords, being wary of attachments in email, and backing up data.
Processes – Organizations must have a framework for how they deal with both attempted and successful cyberattacks. Such framework explains how you can identify attacks, protect systems, detect and respond to threats, and recover from successful attacks. ISO/IEC 27032 provides guidance for improving the state of Cybersecurity, drawing out the unique aspects of that activity and its dependencies on other security domains, in particular: information security, network security, internet security, and; critical information infrastructure protection (CIIP).
Technology – Technology is essential to giving organizations and individuals the computer security tools needed to protect themselves from cyberattacks. Three main entities must be protected:
- Endpoint devices like computers, smart devices, and routers
- Networks
- The cloud.
Common technology used to protect these entities include next-generation firewalls, DNS filtering, malware protection, antivirus software, and email security solutions.
