We also discuss the ROI that criminals are really looking for in a cyber attack and how focusing on where ransomware attacks are the most cost-effective for criminals enables organisiations to invest more wisely in their cyber security 💡Listen in below for the top routes of entry Xing also explains the biggest challenge in managing cyber risk – changing user behaviour - as it often at the individual level that cyber risk enters a business (👇listen in for my great analogy comparing cyber security to a smoke detectors!).
