Risk Management and Failing Cyber Security


To make things more bleak, even companies whose job is to help defend against these attacks have made it clear that, despite their best efforts, the fight against cyber criminals is wrong. Last January, an analysis conducted by a security company revealed that more than half of the computers that had become a controlled host malware or another, all of which could potentially function as a backdoor for some people malicious. Other studies have also shown an increase in the frequency and intensity of cyber attacks in recent years, with an equally large increase in the apparent malicious nature of these attacks. While it may be bad enough when such infringements and invasions occur individually, when the company reaches such activity, the results can be catastrophic, both as a matter of compliance as well as representing the possibility that losses dramatic income.

While the growth of certain technologies in recent years may have made many of our lives easier in some way, we have also put us at ever greater risk, exchanging our personal safety for the sake of convenience, without thinking consequences. Although many companies have not been affected by the problems of this type in the past can not take this matter as seriously as they should, the important thing slip in the right place is all that could lead to paralyze an organization. So, despite the efforts of cybersecurity can not be as successful as expected, the prospect that these efforts could be used for something good still worthwhile.
