Enterprise cyber security is
already an inescapable challenge. Expanding the focus, one could say that “all
things cyber”, in general, -someone will
prefer “all things digital”- is what
conforms the real challenge. A challenge that, more and more, is being
assumed -most of the times, forcefully- by those who are leading the organization.
A couple of weeks ago, we
mentioned Noel Biderman, head of Ashley Madison, who resigned after the cyber
incidents his agency suffered this summer. Today, names are other: Cambridge
University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has just lost its CEO, Dr. Keith
McNeil, and CFO, Mr. Paul James; both members of the institution’s Board. The
reason, this time, has not been an attack
-remember that they are not always the reason; perils of the adoption
and use of “cyber” are of a varied nature-; but an important (in millions of GBPs),
bad managed, technological investment (that, supposedly, has not been well seen
by taxpayers nor supervisory authorities).
Anyway, questionable managers
are not the only problem that users of the healthcare system are facing.
Cyber-physical
threats lurk, too.
And, despite this all,
awareness level keeps low. This is one of the reasons, not to say the main one,
for CCI to keep pushing with its educational events and activities like the
one -“The Voice of the Industry (11th
edition)”- held last week. And it is
what gives sense to initiatives like the one we, with the support of INCIBE,
have just begin to advertise: a new grant program for helping cyber talent
develops.
Finally, written communication is always
in our inventory, too. Because of this, today we are bringing to you an
interesting article -first of a brief new
series- in which our friend Fernando
Sevillano will shows us all how to improve cyber security in industrial
networks.
