The impact of COVID-19 on cyber security

With most employees now working from home, the risk of cyber security attacks has increased exponentially due to insufficient remote access and endpoint security measures in place. In addition, cyber-threat actors have taken full advantage of the global health crisis and the heightened sense of uncertainty, doubt and fear by creating malware or launching attacks with a COVID-19 theme. This webinar will explain the current cybersecurity challenges and what measures you need to implement to mitigate the risks and ensure business continuity.

  • How has the threat landscape changed since the crisis started?
  • What type of threats are on the increase?
  • How have organisations responded?
  • What new response measures have been implemented? What lessons have been learned?
  • To what extent are organisations’ remote working infrastructures and endpoints protected? What risks do companies need to be aware of?
  • How have companies educated their remote workers/implemented awareness campaigns?
  • What lessons about cyber security can be learned from the virus itself?
