HHS Cybersecurity’s Post

How can we turn humans from the weakest link in cybersecurity into our strongest defense? 🌟Paula Starr, Chief Information Officer of Cherokee Nation, believes the answer lies in getting more people involved in cybersecurity and making the field more accessible and understandable. Cybersecurity isn't just a concern for IT staff—it's a shared responsibility that requires everyone's participation. “We need to get the rest of our workforce more involved in cyber. It needs to be less clinical, more human—focused on what we’re actually protecting," said Starr. "Our goal should be to have employees join the fight with us, rather than being the most vulnerable part of our defenses.” 🌟 If you want to join the vibrant community of cyber defenders like Starr and  advance public interest cybersecurity, check our more of our 2024 take-aways and join the mailing list to be among the first to register to attend the #CyberCivilDefense Summit in 2025! https://lnkd.in/gTZVJHMV #publicinterestcybersecurity #cybersecurity

Budget planning for 2025 is underway and this is the million-dollar question for most companies: what percentage of the IT budget should be allocated to #cybersecurity? Even when that budget is set, the truth is businesses still struggle to figure out the best way to manage it, which services to prioritise, or where to get the best expertise. So, to help companies of all sizes plan their next year’s cyber strategy in the best possible way, our Head of Cyberdefence and Country Director for Canada, Nabil Diab, clarifies these and many other questions in this article https://lnkd.in/gdD63iYH. #altersolutions #actdigital #itservices #itsolutions #budget #2025 #CISO #SOC #EDR #managedservices

A huge shout-out and thank you to Jan Lemnitzer and Martin Kofoed for being so frank and direct in this mornings Version2.dk webinar, professionally moderated by Mats Magnussen 🙏 🙌 🙏 The time has certainly come to talk openly about the real problems in Danish national cybersecurity, which they both pointed out: 👉 Municipalities are still not included in the coming NIS2 legislation (and they still do not live up to the minimum requirements) 👉 Most CEO's and executive managements still see cybersecurity as something that happens to others, which is no longer the reality. So huge kudos to you guys for stopping the "beating around the bush", as we have seen in the cybersecurity community for decades (since it was called information security, actually)❕And also thanks to Version2.dk for giving cybersecurity the much needed media attention 🙏 🙌 🙏 #cybersecurity #informationsecurity #digitalsecurity

It's thrilling to witness the growing recognition of threat quantification and prioritization, a field that was once quite niche, now becoming a vital part of the cyber lexicon. At Tidal Cyber, we literally wrote the book on Cyber Threat Profiling. Built on the foundational work of the #threatintelligence and #threatinformeddefense communities (which we prominently highlight throughout), our guide remains incredibly popular even a year after its release. If you haven't explored it yet, download it here: https://lnkd.in/ga6hHKqF. Our clients benefit from continuously updated and streamlined guidance on identifying and quantifying relevant cyber threats, thanks to our iterative and refined methodology. Our extensive library of curated Threat Profiles is constantly expanding alongside the evolving #threat landscape. Advanced users also have the flexibility to customize or build their own profiles based on unique #CTI insights. If you’d like to explore our collection or learn how to operationalize your threat profiles effectively, let us know: https://lnkd.in/eTHdQGZe.
