Weathering the Digital Storm: Attacks on 3rd Party Collaboration Sites and Data Governance Controls
Synopsis:
In today's interconnected business landscape, collaboration platforms have become essential tools for organizations to foster productivity and communication.
However, as these platforms become more integral to our businesses, they also become more attractive targets for cyber criminals.
We explore the most recent evolution of the threat landscape, which is aiming at exploiting the way people and business work together and share data.
We discuss the unique challenges associated with identifying previously unknown attack patterns and critical points of early intervention from a technological, governance and behavioural perspective.

1.Awareness of Current Threats: Understand the cybersecurity threats and attack vectors that organizations and individuals are facing.
2.Importance of Cyber Hygiene: Recognise the significance of core cybersecurity practices, such as hardening and user awareness.
