The finance industry is one of the most targeted industries for cyberattacks, and it makes sense.

In December 2022, FBI Supervisory Special Agent Michael Sohn cautioned small businesses that they were being targeted by cybercriminals.

The wrong time to look for flood insurance is during a flood. Similarly, the wrong time to look for an Incident Response (IR) team is when you’re already under a cyberattack. We get it. Inflation is skyrocketing, and businesses are tightening their purse strings. The rise in energy and gas prices also isn’t helping. Companies […]

The thought of the Rams going onto the field with the 49ers without first spending months practicing would be unheard of. And the same is true of responding to cyberattacks in a company. Firefighters do fire drills. Actors do dress rehearsals. And IT and security teams do tabletop exercises. Tabletop exercises are a low-stress rehearsal […]
