FAQ
Below we’ve provided some info on how we work, information security risks and cyber security in general.
My business is small in size, so doesn't that mean I don't need to worry about cyber threats?
It is nationally recognised that there is unfortunately a rising threat on small and micro businesses by cyber criminals. The Deputy Director for Economy and Society of GCHQ’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), Sarah Lyons said: "Small businesses are the lifeblood of this country, but we know they can be a target for cyber criminals, particularly as they move more operations online."
Therefore, regardless of your company size, my consultancy is happy to work with you to protect your business from being a primary target.
What is this talk of "risk-based approach"?
Reviewing your company's approach to risk management is the first place to start for any business to be able to ensure appropriate protection from the majority of the cyber threats. We can work with you on your current approach to ensure that your company has a balanced "risk appetite" and are maintaining a sufficiently secure system network and building onto it with each technological development implemented.
I read somewhere that the human risk factor is the biggest one. We're all human and can just make mistakes, so how can we lower this risk?
It is indeed fact that the human risk factor remains your greatest point of vulnerability when it comes to cyber security, with human error accounting for 90% of all security breach incidents. The best way to fix this situation is to create behavioural change and a culture of security across your organisation. We at Cybite Ltd can work with your business to encourage your users to reduce their high-risk behaviours, so that security awareness becomes second nature. The right levels of training and consistent user engagement are ones on we can work with your company in order to achieve this new user mindset. This can help your users to become a key part of your cyber defence strategy, rather than a risk factor.
