Ready to armour up your organisation against the growing threat of cybercrime?   Joining us this week for our Safety and Risk Success Podcast is René-Sylvain Bédard, a world-renowned IT specialist and CEO of Indominus. With over 25 years of experience as a technical architect, René shares his insights on how to build a robust cybersecurity strategy for any size business.     Highlights:     - The Impact of Cybercrime: A real-life incident: a small engineering firm loses over $500,000 and faces a month of disruption due to a single employee clicking on a malicious email. - Cybercrime is a Big Business: The dark web is the third largest global economy, with organised criminal gangs and state-sponsored groups targeting both small and large organisations. - The Human Element: 92% of CEOs are not technology-centric, making them vulnerable to cyberattacks. A lack of awareness and investment in cybersecurity is a major obstacle. - Layered Defence: Just like Swiss cheese, multiple layers of cybersecurity are needed, as no single solution is foolproof. This includes endpoint detection and response (EDR) systems, firewalls, and secure identity management. - The Rise of AI: AI is being used by cybercriminals to create more sophisticated and targeted attacks. AI-powered malware can bypass traditional security measures. - The Future of Cybersecurity: Quantum computing poses a significant threat to existing encryption systems, but also offers hope for eradicating cybercrime by decrypting the dark web. - Secure by Design: René-Sylvain's book provides a framework for business leaders to build a culture of cybersecurity, with a clear roadmap for prevention and mitigation.   Actions:   - Connect with René: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rsbedard/ - Take the Indominus ScoreCard: https://bulletin.indominus.ms/devices-secured - Stay tuned for René-Sylvain's upcoming book, "SECURE by Design: A leader's guide to keeping cybercriminals out of your business", available in August 2024 on Amazon. - Connect with Chrisitan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-harris-slip-safety/
