As cyber threats continue to evolve, it becomes essential for companies to establish effective standards to protect their data and ensure the security of their operations. Recently, we relaunched our podcast, Cyber Ops Unmasked, where we cover all things cybersecurity. Cybersecurity initiatives are often misunderstood, mismanaged, or purposely hidden in companies to avoid scrutiny. In this podcast, we’ll have an open discussion so that cybersecurity operations are understood, managed effectively, and open to questioning and scrutiny.

Here’s a fact: the data you store and transmit across your organization’s networks is a highly valuable asset that needs to be protected. The size of your business is irrelevant; the industry you work in is also irrelevant. What matters to cybercriminals is if they can compromise your data and how much you will pay for its safe return.
