The human layer matters – now more than ever.
Security awareness is no longer about an annual training
session. Employees need continuous, practical training,
supported by clear policies, reporting procedures, role-based
awareness and realistic phishing simulations. The goal is to
swift from awareness to behavior and then to culture, making
people the most important link in the security chain.
Technology needs to keep up – faster than before
Various implemented controls provide multiple layers
of protection and can protect against human activities,
accidental or not. But are they working? Technologies like
Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) can continuously test
security controls against various attack techniques, helping
organizations identify weaknesses and correct them before
attackers can exploit them.
At SYNTAX, we help organizations address both sides
of the challenge:
At the end of the day, it all comes down to people and
technology working together.
AI Is Making Cyberattacks
Harder to Detect. Is Your
Organization Ready?
AI is continuously evolving the way cyberattacks are
carried out. AI enabled Social Engineering are much more
sophisticated: they can now be highly personalized, convincing
and automated. Attackers can research targets, generate
realistic messages and impersonate trusted people at scale.
The old warning signs are becoming harder to spot.
