![]() ![]() Knowing that every network is unique in IT architecture, size, scale, and location, CISO Global implements security solutions as diverse as the attack surfaces they safeguard, the pillars being education and cultivating a culture of security. And they don't provide one-size-fits-all solutions. CISO Global is pioneering this new mentality, placing education and cultural transformation at the core of its mission to combat ransomware. While state-of-the-art technology is essential, its efficacy lies in the hands of skilled cybersecurity professionals capable of deploying it effectively. More than excellent at what they do, CISO is at the forefront of a revolutionary mindset shift regarding cybersecurity, reshaping the concept from a product-centric approach to an ingrained cultural mindset. "Cybersecurity is a Culture, not a Product" is a more accurate representation and is the trademark of CISO Global. But don't consider CISO as an exclusively cyber security products company.ĬISO Global Is Transforming the Cybersecurity Mindset This is precisely the culture and value proposition embodied by CISO Global (NASDAQ: CISO), offering its customers a mix of security and compliance experts fortified by state-of-the-art proprietary technology. That led to the rightful conclusion that a potent combination of skilled cybersecurity experts and cutting-edge technology must be deployed with precision to triumph in the cyber war. However, the almost pure focus on products and a lack of cohesive implementation have limited the effectiveness of these initiatives. There are efforts to defend, evidenced by global expenditures of $282 billion and counting, to create firewalls. ![]() To grasp the magnitude of lost value, consider that in 2022 alone, reported losses and damages caused by cybercrime amounted to a staggering $6 trillion worldwide, positioning cybercrime as the world's third-largest GDP. And no longer is the battle outcome favoring the innocent. The prevalence of cybercrime, especially with the integration of AI-enhanced social engineering and brute force attacks, has pushed the cyber war into the realm of existential threat. Remember, while people and businesses focus on whatever it is they do, cyber criminals devote 24/7 to developing more sophisticated attacks. These intentional mutations are meticulously designed to enrich them at our expense. That's because our adversaries constantly evolve and modify Ransomware to outsmart the latest security measures. And companies, more times than not, remain vulnerable. However, succumbing to the ransom demands does not guarantee resolution but often leads to ongoing extortion. This malicious software encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom to restore access or decrypt the files. ![]() Worse, most are battling an arsenal they can't defend, with Ransomware a preferred weapon.ĭon't Underestimate The Veracity Of Ransomware In today's interconnected world, if you use the internet, you are a target, and a war is being waged against you. It attracted the attention of large, well-funded criminal organizations, including highly-sophisticated state-sponsored adversaries that have continuously unleashed a barrage of malware, predominantly Ransomware, upon the vast expanse of the internet. Of course, that new age of decentralized activity came with consequences. That changed with the advent of Bitcoin, which revolutionized the digital landscape, enabling wealth transfer with relative anonymity. Gone are the days when lone-wolf hackers targeted specific entities with anonymity as a shield. But the pace of technology ensures the alarming reality that what was impenetrable a year ago can be fodder to cyber criminals today. Truth be told, both may have been wholly insulated a year ago, and there's no finger-pointing that they aren't currently. That includes those that one would think are already well-protected, like Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT), who actively develop highly specialized defense utilities, and Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), which most know as the largest and most successful EV company in the world. In fact, in no uncertain terms, an immediate call to action is required. The sophistication of cybercrime, which attacks individuals and billion-dollar companies, and everyone in between, should not be taken lightly. And that disregard may have been acceptable several years ago. Cybersecurity used to be a word people heard but seldom reacted to. ![]()
