What’s your plan for dealing with someone who causes a cyber security incident? In nearly all cases, an online security breach is the result of an innocent mistake by a member of your team – usually because they’ve clicked a link in a scam email which opens the door to a cyber attack.
Oops.
The online security breach can become worse if that person is afraid of owning up because they think there will be negative consequences. The delay allows viruses to spread until they do maximum damage.
Oops again.
But if they know what to do the moment they realize what’s happened – and your company culture encourages admitting mistakes – you stand the best chance of limiting the damage, or shutting down an attack completely.
That means:
- Your people need to be well trained in cyber security threats
- They must know the procedure when they spot a mistake
- They need to know it’s better to report what’s happened than hide their mistake
This is how you protect your business and protect your team.
