Is the human factor in security breaches over blown?
Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services –
Apart from revenue loss, companies who have a data breach also suffer damage to their brand reputation, lose intellectual property, lose sales, get unexpected expenses, legal penalties, etc.
Setting up a fool-proof security system to prevent data breaches is almost impossible. Companies that do this end up hindering their productivity as employees have to deal with many security checks, access permissions, third-party security tools, etc.
The best course of action is to create a balance between data protection and damage mitigation. Investing in employee security training and implementing the security strategies and tools mentioned above can prevent data breaches from harming your organization.
