The Top 3 <strong>Cyber</strong> Security Mistakes and How to Avoid<br />
Them<br />
As hacks become more common, organizations have no room <strong>for</strong> cybersecurity mistakes.<br />
By Ivan Paynter, National <strong>Cyber</strong>security Specialist at ScanSource<br />
Ransomware cost Americans an estimated $1.4 billion last year, and beyond high-profile hacks<br />
like the Kaseya and Colonial Pipeline breaches, cyber threats are more common than ever. As a<br />
result, businesses of all sizes are scrambling to learn more about cyber security and ensure that they<br />
have the proper measures in place to protect their operations. These are the top three considerations<br />
organizations must take into account when implementing or upgrading their cyber security approach.<br />
1. People and Training<br />
First and <strong>for</strong>emost, there is a significant lack of cybersecurity education among employees. The<br />
human firewall is the most important defense, but it is also the most vulnerable. That means<br />
security training has to be a top priority when it comes to an organization’s cyber security.<br />
Organizations should implement a security awareness training plat<strong>for</strong>m which trains, tests and<br />
scores all employees. It’s important to teach employees how to identify cyber security threats and<br />
remain vigilant toward anything suspicious, such as scams, fraudulent emails, or even physical<br />
threats. It’s also important to consider implementing some sort of email gateway filter. With the<br />
rise of remote working, additional problems emerge as more people go mobile. For example, it is<br />
much easier on mobile to mix company and private mail and people tend to click quickly, which<br />
leads to errors. We all need to slow down, verify incoming requests and be cognizant of what we<br />
are clicking on so that we do not fall victim to a cyber security threat.<br />
