Hackers vs Publishers: 5 key considerations to get ahead of evolving cybercrimes

Every day, 1.7 million ransomware attacks occur. More than 90% of data breaches are as a result of human error. Cybercrime costs are increasing 15% annually. But what can publishers do to protect themselves from the threat of an attack?

Hackers always stay one step ahead, and as a technologically centric industry, the media sector is at great risk.

You might think ‘but I’ve got backups, I’m covered’… while it’s true that investing in a strong back up system is important, it’s only one side of the coin. Cybercriminals are becoming increasingly more innovative and it’s our job to ensure our business is prepared for when an attack occurs, not if.

Now more than ever, publishers should be investing in security technologies, looking at how their backups are stored, and educating their teams in cybersecurity so that they can become the first, last, and best line of defence against cybercriminals.

In this webinar, we will be exploring the different ways cybercriminals are infiltrating companies, and share the 5 key considerations you need to take into account in order to get ahead of evolving cybercrime.

What you can expect to learn:

• We are safe, we have backups! Are you adequately protected against ransomware?
• Opening the door to hackers. Are your staff giving criminals a helping hand?
• Do you have a plan for when you get hacked? That's right...when.
• We would never pay a ransom! Persuasive tactics hackers use to try and get publishers to pay up!
• Who are you connected to? Keeping your customer’s data safe when integrated into third-party systems.

Who should attend the webinar: C-Suite, Leadership, Directors/Department heads, IT Directors, IT Managers
