Cyberattacks are constantly evolving and becoming more sophisticated - impacting all sizes of organisations.

South African Businesses Underprepared for Cyberattacks: FSACCI Hosts Crucial Event A recent Cisco survey reveals a glaring vulnerability in South Africa's business landscape: cybersecurity preparedness. At the same time, 73% of surveyed companies anticipate a cyberattack within the next two years, and a mere 5% boast "mature" defences. This significant disconnect between perception and reality underscores the urgency for businesses to strengthen their cybersecurity posture. French South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry recognises the gravity of the situation for its members and the broader business community. It will host the "Battling the Shadows of Cyber Criminality" event on Tuesday, May 7th, 2024, from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM with our cybercrime expert at the French Embassy in South Africa.

This episode of Steve Morgan for Cybersecurity Ventures Cybercrime Magazine "Cyber Trust & Transparency. The CISO's Perspective" with Philip Reitinger is not to be missed. In the program, our President & CEO explains that GCA operates like a startup. In what way? Thinking, identifying problems, finding solutions to apply at scale to protect people, wherever they are, from attacks, so they can take advantage of the economic and social opportunities that the Internet enables, and measuring the results. 📈 During the interview he talks about metrics and KPIs for CISOs, which he himself has been and speaks on a daily basis, areas of interest to look at to better measure cyber risk, SecurityScorecard and Tidal Cyber, methodologies and risk management when it comes from third parties. Transparency, prudence, aspects of interest in terms of national strategy and recommendations to implement, as well as cyber statistics, resilience and trust - very useful for #CEOs, #Boards and #CISOs!

😀 Today, I heard interesting insights about how important is to protect our data from cyber-attacks, especially in the future because this will be one of the big challenges for all of us, even if we are a simple individual or a major company. 🔔 A quantifiable detail about this subject is in the podcast about the personal data of Cristina Vannini-Goodchild (C-DPO, CIPP/E, ITILv4) who discussed with an expert in cyber security the upward trend of the mentioned threat in the future, knowing that, in 2020, the UK economy lost about 21 billion pounds and that sum increased with 30% at the end of 2023. 💡 If this happened in the UK where London is one of the biggest financial centers of the world with tailored cyber security services, what can we say about other countries, for example, Romania? 📞 Is it an interesting subject for your podcast, Cristina Vannini-Goodchild (C-DPO, CIPP/E, ITILv4)?
