The human side of cybersecurity
Empowering people, strengthening defences.
Barely a week goes by without a devastating cyberattack making the headlines. And no-one is exempt from this risk: from multinational corporations to private individuals, from governments to schools, victims of cybercrime are as diverse as they are many.
In cybersecurity, people are both our weakest link and our strongest defence. Organisations need to combine the right tools with the right talent, because cybercriminals know how to target our uniquely human traits like kindness, curiosity, and trust - as well as our natural tendency to make mistakes.
But, with the right support, people can become the driving force of cybersecurity excellence in your organisation:
- Empower your employees
Turn them into active defenders of your digital landscape. - Foster a cybersecurity culture
Upskill your workforce, foster cyber literacy, and cultivate a cybersecurity mindset. - Embrace the human element
Leverage your people’s uniquely human traits to fortify your technical defences.
At Sopra Steria, we are committed to a future where technology enhances resilience.
Our cyber practice guides digital transformations with a steady hand and creates an atmosphere of dependability. With a team of more than 3,000 security experts, we compose robust digital environments for essential industries, ensuring their operations run smoothly. We cultivate a serene mindset amidst the chaos, ensuring calm in the cyber storm.
