Understanding Cyber Security and How to Protect Ourselves #216

Cyber security is front page news these days as big tech companies and governmental organizations are getting caught up in the firestorm of hacking and data breaches. So how do these breaches come to be? Chief Evangelist for Saviynt, and cyber security expert, Diana Volere, discusses the issues that come with living in a technologically advanced world. Corporations and organizations constantly feel the pressure to maximize operation efficiency while maintaining an appropriate level of cyber security, and it becomes a juggling act that some inevitably fail. We chat about the shift of every industry towards cloud storage and away from physical servers and how that affects security. There is definitely a human error factor as well, but that doesn't mean we should give cyber security professionals a free pass, it is their job to keep the public's information secure. So that leaves it up to us to do our part, as much as we hate it, by changing our passwords often, viewing email proposals or pleas for help with a healthy level of suspicion, and keeping our credit card information secure online. Tune in to learn more about how digital security has become so compromised in recent years and what you should be doing to safeguard yourself and your business.
