When we hear the word “cybersecurity” a lot comes to mind — firewalls, antivirus, endpoint protection, email security, web security and much more. But how often do we think or talk about people? This is a central element in cybersecurity that is often ignored. ‘To err is human"— it’s obvious that as humans we often make mistakes. And we can’t be programmed either. As humans, our behavior is largely unpredictable, and failure to account for insider threats can result into costly securityfalse

While much of cybersecurity is focused on prevention, the simple fact is that many attacks are successful. Even a sophisticated, expensive security system is going to be breached from time to time. Smart attackers try to fly under the radar, biding their time and extracting maximum value or causing maximum carnage, sometimes over a period of months or even years.

The numerous high-profile data breaches that took place in 2018 illustrate that no organization, irrespective of size, scale or scope, is immune from cyberattacks. Last year witnessed a 350% increase in ransomware attacks and a 70% increase in spear-phishing attacks.
