Cyberattack.
It gives us no pleasure to say this, but for years we have been suggesting that basic precautions against cyberattacks, were often lacking within organisations and that auditors and others were not paying enough attention to their IT Systems and Structures.
But now we are hearing about Quantum Computing as an agent to break codes and keys, AI bots that seek out weaknesses, and hostile countries infiltrating systems it’s as if we live in a world where it becomes a case of ‘when’ rather than ‘will’ we be breached by a third party.
There is no perfect solution but these things are absolutley vital:
- Have a trusted backup, that can be used to restore systems after a successful attack;
- Have a crisis management plan, for dealing with intruders and infiltration;
- Train as many people as possible to understand what is going on.
