Cyber Security

Cyber Security needs to be understood correctly by organisations and approached with the utmost importance. CMIS Innovations sees Cyber Security as another component that needs to be aligned with business strategy. We live in a world which is changing and where confidential data can be easily compromised. Like our other consultancies, we assist the client's focus on what matters most.

Research has shown that companies globally are spending considerable amounts of money to protect their data against cyberattacks. Investing in the best enterprise grade technology is good but it is not enough. Yes one may have their firewalls in place and strong passwords, however Cyber Security goes far beyond this. At this point, organisations must come to the understanding that IT Security and Cyber Security are two completely different things. 

Technology is only one part to the cyber security wheel. Organisational leaders need to understand that many cyber attacks originate from the exploitation of an employee's understanding of what best practices are  and these employees sit at every level of the organisation; even their resident cyber security and IT professionals. Organisations must therefore train their employees to improve cyber security resilience and robustness, thus ensuring that such attacks are mitigated.

Some organisations struggle to implement best practices in Cyber Security because they have not grasped the complexity of the discipline.  The onus is on leaders to take stock of their cyber security initiatives and ensure that their organisations implement robust cyber security plans . A 2021 benchmark survey revealed that 43% of global executives believed they had an extremely robust cyber security landscape which followed industry best practices. Actual research into their beliefs revealed only 24% met such a benchmark.
