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/

What is FUD, and why is it so prevalent in cyber security? — Cydea

“Everyone, deep in their hearts, is waiting for the end of the world to come.” – Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

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!

What makes a good risk assessment? — Cydea

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

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.

How DORA could have changed history? — Cydea

Gain an understanding of your DORA compliance by taking our DORA Readiness Quiz. In a few short months, the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) will come into effect for organisations operating in the European financial sector.

🚀 Cydea has been selected for the Cyber Runway: Scale programme! 🚀

The Cyber Runway programme is funded by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) and delivered by Plexal Cyber with Deloitte and Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT).

Cyber Runway is the largest cyber accelerator in the UK and the Scale programme is intended to support businesses grow rapidly in the UK and internationally. We'll get support on review/formulating growth plans, introductions and networking with potential partners and customers, engineering support, a range of workshops and mentoring sessions on growing the business, and access to a network of other cyber hubs around the world.

It’s recognition of the pervasive problems with cyber risk management, and the potential for Cydea’s innovative services – which can be delivered via our SaaS platform or as consultancy – to help improve security programmes and #CloseTheLoop on cyber risk.

If you haven’t already, follow us for more #CRQ insights, our Cyber Runway experience, and check out https://cydea.com/platform/ and signup to get started for free, or to book some time with one of the team.

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.

"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

Why we need to change how we understand cyber risk [Q&A]

Cybersecurity is a high priority for organizations, yet often they're unsure if they're focusing their effort in the right places, and spending too much or too little on protecting themselves.

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.
