The announcement from the #ICO this morning indicating a fine for a #ransomware attack could follow is an important one. There have not been many enforcement notices published in relation to #cyberattacks, relative to the high volume of #breach notifications the ICO receives. So where these are published, they should be considered carefully. The press release highlights the sensitivity of the data involved and talks about the importance of #security measures. From this statement alone, it is worth noting that multi-factor authentication (#MFA) is mentioned 4 times! Clearly a significant factor that the ICO is signalling. Our team tracks security #TOMs referenced in enforcement decisions across the world and this aligns with what other regulators are flagging. The other measures mentioned, which also align with our TOMs tracker are the following: - regularly checking for #vulnerabilities, and - keeping systems up to date with the latest security #patches

#CISOrecruitment #jobdescription #habilesec #cyberhire #tanikkai "Nearly 99% of CISO job descriptions appear misleading. When I used to hire CISOs, the emphasis was on strategic impact, not technical minutiae like 'Managing ISO 27001' or 'Configuring Firewalls'. The focus was on transformative leadership: - Driving change and transformation - Executing strategic initiatives - Building organizational trust Yet, many current CISO job descriptions miss the mark entirely. Remember, when you invest $200k, $300k, or $400k annually, it's not just about cybersecurity prowess — it's about enhancing business acumen."
