Cyber Security

AI is the newest powerful cybersecurity tool supporting real time detection, prevention and reaction to any incursions and attacks over the Internet. Recent studies highlight AI-based cybersecurity as a growing market valued $22,4 billion in 2023 expected to raise annually by 22%, but AI also fosters novel social engineering attacks based on ChatGPT (+135%). To be ahead of a challenging cybersecurity landscape endangered by sophisticated attacks, organizations need to enforce their defensive strategies with advanced measures like AI to optimize performances (100 days acceleration to detect and handle threats) and reduce damage costs (-$1,8 billion).

: Incident response (IR) is a security approach allowing to quickly identify attacks, mitigate damages, address causes and reduce negative events iteration. As cyber security represents a key function to enforce across digital transformation, companies must build solid and detailed incident response plans to check areas exposed to attacks and foresee the best defensive countermeasures. The importance of incident response plans shouldn’t be underestimated, as IBM states that organizations can save $4,45 million for the recovery, especially leveraging AI-based solutions with a $1,76 million saving. Furthermore, firms are willing to increase their investments in cyber security to develop and implement incident response plans into business.

The K.I.S.S. principle is a design approach highlighting simplicity as a key factor to improve products and services overall quality, usability and performances. The K.I.S.S. principle can be successfully applied for cyber security design to make security models’ architecture and procedures easy, usable, effective, efficient and responsive to tackle cyber threats minimizing risks and damages. The acronym “K.I.S.S.” stands for several meanings like “keep it simple, stupid” or “keep it super simple”, but for what concerns cyber security it could be read as “keep information security simple”. This approach addresses simplicity as the powerful lever that made the most disruptive innovations possible, a concept confirmer by modern geniuses as Steve Jobs.

Cyber security is a serious issue to consider in digital transformation, as cyber attacks and threats are constantly growing in modern business and governmental environments that thrive over the Internet. AI-powered cyber security solutions can enhance the safety of an IT system.

Cyber security is often haunted by dangerous threats, harmful actions aiming to damage, steal or disrupt data stored on databases and devices entailing major risks above all within companies. Cyber criminals master the ability to be up-to-date by learning how the latest systems and applications work and how to attack them breaking through defenses. This originates new dangerous cyber security threats companies should be aware of in order to keep private data and information safe and prevent serious damages for the systems, or even for the brand. Preventing cyber security threats to transform into real attacks and infections is not an easy task, as the key to succeed in the prevention is working together within the organisation to enhance knowledge and awareness of this phenomenon. Thus, it’s essential to learn and implement within the organisation some best practises to prevent the potential risks related to the latest cyber security threats used by cyber criminals to assault personal and business digital lives.

Spear phishing is a dangerous kind of cyber crime that differs from classic phishing, as it aims to attack specific target personal data and information instead of attempting to “fish” a bunch of casual people’s data. Furthermore, to make it possible, cyber criminals mastering spear phishing attacks know how to use finest technologies to create proper communications which appear to look reliable and related to realistic issues of the target victim. Discover what are the main types of spear phishing attacks to be aware of, how to detect and fight it especially within businesses.

Investing in cyber resilience and cyber security is key to remain safe and steady. Although both terms refer to IT security, cyber security is the set of technologies and actions to mitigate risks, while cyber resilience is the organization's ability to react to threats and attacks.

A data breach occurs when a company is responsible for people’s personal data and suffers a security problem resulting in a violation in terms of confidentiality, availability or integrity.

Risk Management is the discipline dealing with the management of all the possible risks that can have an impact on the company’s activities. It is useful for different areas: from finance to asset management, up to security management.
