The Weakest Link

According to the OAIC (Office of the Australian Information Commissioner) report, 36% of all cyber-attacks in Australia are caused by human error, this is the phenomenon known as PEBKAC (Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair). Thus, employees are our greatest assets, and our weakest link by potentially falling victim cyber-attacks in various forms. They are also our first line of defence, hence continuous education, training and awareness are needed to remain vigilant against cyber-attacks.

‘Hack the man, not the IT’

Employees are the weakest link in any organisation. Attacks again employees have grown in frequency and sophistication. Through publically available information and minimal effort, it is becoming easy for attackers to bypass network protection. In the current environment, companies are looking to protect their brand, reputation, and information. There are many technical tools that filter spam and prevent phishing, but the best bet is still to raise awareness.
