What is FUD, why is it so prevalent in cyber security, and how can you take a more positive approach?

Archie Coomber takes a dive into human nature and how it may be hindering your decision making in our recent blog post: https://cydea.com/blog/why-so-much-fud/

#PositiveSecurity #FUFUD #Cyber #Risk #DecisionMaking

Only 1/3 of UK businesses have ever conducted a cyber risk assessment 😮

Plus we often hear from IT and Security Teams that struggle to know what makes a *good* risk assessment?

This is despite risk being widely regarded as the foundation for any cyber security programme. It features in government guidance, international standards, and wider good practice.

So we're starting a new series on the Cydea blog looking into just that. Plus tips and tricks on how you can up your #cyber #risk game (and maybe sneak in a bit of #CRQ too 🤑)

Check out the link below to the first part where we touch on preparation and (briefly) identifying risk - then make sure you're following Cydea for future updates!

Hop in the Cydea time machine and take a ride with us as we take a look at how #DORA could have changed history 🕰️

Penny takes a look at the Travelex and Tesco Bank incidents and how #risk management and #resilience testing could have played an important role in preventing and rebounding from those incidents.

Check out her blog post here: https://cydea.com/blog/dora-changing-history-improving-resilience/

Penny's back with the next in our digital operational resilience series, this time looking at the differences between #DORA and #ISO27001.

Complying with a risk-based standard like ISO 27001 gets you a long way there, but there are still areas where you may need to do more.

Check out the Penny's blog post for the key differences between DORA vs ISO 27001, and for a link to Cydea's free DORA Readiness Quiz!

"Security teams are struggling to conduct accurate risk assessments and communicate the results with business and technology colleagues. They find simple questions like 'what is our risk?' difficult to answer meaningfully."

Check out this interview with Cydea founder Robin Oldham about why we need to change how we understand #cyber #risk

What is "likely?" 🤔

This is what #BSides Exeter thought... ignoring the 0% trolls, "likely" means anywhere between ~30% and ~90% to the 50+ people that voted in our poll.

If you're struggling to communicate your #CyberRisk or don't feel like you're being heard, Cydea can help. Turn ambiguous statements into meaningful numbers that can underpin security programmes, investment cases, or show the benefit you're bringing to the business.
