Follow on Google News | Mimecast Chief Security Strategist Spoke at RSA Conference 2016 Abu DhabiSteven Malone discussed top cyber security attack techniques, defending against human error and outlined strategies for building a more resilient human firewall
By: Mimecast Sharing his experience, Steven Malone, Chief Security Strategist, Mimecast said, "Organizations are being attacked by cyber criminals with greater frequency and sophistication than ever before. Historically businesses have turned to advanced technology to protect themselves from cyber-attacks, but this approach is just not enough. With more than 90 percent of cyber-attacks using email as the attack vector, it is essential that organizations strengthen their email security strategy as well as create a 'human firewall' because hacking a human is often easier than breaching a business." "At RSA Conference Abu Dhabi, I spoke about the threats organizations face through socially-engineered email attacks and how to increase awareness of these threats, encourage a behavior change towards security, and invoke a stronger human firewall to help protect their business from future attacks," he added. In its second year, RSA Conference 2016 Abu Dhabi is the premier platform for attendees to learn from the most skilled individuals in cybersecurity, better enabling them to protect their valuable business assets. -Ends- About Mimecast Mimecast makes business email and data safer for 21,800 customers and their millions of employees worldwide.
