These cross-industry roles have collided to teach me valuable lessons about running transatlantic<br />
organisations -- as well as how to protect them from digital adversaries and nation-state threats. Through<br />
my diverse experience, I’ve learned that organisations can make improvements to their overall<br />
cybersecurity effectiveness by focusing on improving training, taking initiative, and increasing internal<br />
communication and collaboration ef<strong>for</strong>ts.<br />
<strong>Cyber</strong>security Culture Starts at the Top<br />
Leaders across each and every industry I’ve worked in are the ones who set the tone <strong>for</strong> how their teams<br />
engage with challenges, solutions and risks. A culture of security awareness and protection starts at the<br />
top.<br />
Their willingness to learn about cybersecurity can make a huge difference in the way the team<br />
approaches education and awareness. <strong>Cyber</strong>security training is often treated as a one-time, brief session<br />
to go over the basics such as password best practices and how to recognize phishing attacks. While this<br />
approach can be educational, there is a lack of engagement happening. organisations typically treat<br />
cybersecurity training as a ‘box ticking’ strategy, where employees are asked to do a training session and<br />
assume the job is done. In reality, employers should be creating a culture that helps people identify<br />
security challenges while also investing in the right technologies.<br />
Moreover, having a supportive and collaborative leadership team is crucial to creating a strong sense of<br />
involvement around cybersecurity. This involves taking a zero-trust approach to cybersecurity by<br />
assuming that there could always be risks. According to a 2020 Insider Threat Report, 68% of<br />
organisations reported that insider attacks were becoming more frequent. This involves having clear onboarding<br />
and off-boarding procedures <strong>for</strong> employees, hosting clear cybersecurity training sessions,<br />
regularly changing passwords, and having two-factor authentication on at all times. In addition,<br />
businesses should be aware of the best possible technological solutions.<br />
Taking Initiative with <strong>Cyber</strong>security Protection and Risk Factor Awareness<br />
In addition, many organisations struggle with corporate procrastination around cybersecurity issues. This<br />
can lead to major repercussions down the line. Issues should be addressed head on. There are many<br />
relevant examples of this such as an employee putting off changing passwords or implementing twofactor<br />
authentication. The number of stolen passwords and usernames in circulation has increased by<br />
300% since 2018 (Digital Shadows Research Team). Passwords are shared between personal and work<br />
devices and are often written in plain sight rather than secured with a password manager. This further<br />
improves the importance of taking a proactive approach to cybersecurity measures. Passwords should<br />
be regularly changed and updated. Leadership teams should be taking these extra steps.<br />
