Cyber Security: A people problem

The number of detected cyber security incidents in Australia was the highest worldwide in 2014-15 with an increase of 109% compared to a 38.5% increase globally, according to local data from The Global State of Information Security Survey 2016, released by PwC.

Cyber security as we currently know it is built on trust. Trust that businesses have secure sites when collecting customer data. Trust that employees will create strong passwords and update them regularly. Trust that digital suppliers have strong coding practices in place. The weakest link in cyber security is us.In this event we’ll be exploring:

• The flaws in current cyber security measures

• Trends in attacks – including ransomware, phishing and insider threats

• Global learnings and developments in cyber security

• Building a ‘human firewall’ by instilling a culture of security within your organisation – from your team right through to your suppliers
