situational awareness

It is important to note that situational awareness — being aware of one's surroundings and identifying potential threats and dangerous situations — is more of a mindset than a hard skill. Because of this, situational awareness is not something that can be practiced only by highly trained government agents or specialized corporate security teams. Indeed, it can be exercised by anyone with the will and the discipline to do so. Situational awareness is not only important for recognizing terrorist threats, but it also serves to identify criminal behavior and other dangerous situations.

The primary element in establishing this mindset is first to recognize that threats exist. Ignorance or denial of a threat make a person's chances of quickly recognizing an emerging threat and avoiding it highly unlikely. Bad things do happen. Apathy, denial and complacency can have great impact on your business if breached.

We are a group of I.D.F veterans that have been assisting to organizations to develop these skills in the CI, IT and IS domains.

Information security departments should be asking themselves how they can reduce end-user error in a meaningful way and start thinking of their end users as a layer to work with, not work around. Just like every other layer, there should be time and investment — even though a security awareness and training program may not seem to fit within traditional information security skill-sets or protection plans.
​
By engaging and educating end users at a relevant time and place, organizations are tackling the human error problem head-on. Is this a silver bullet for perfect security? Of course not. But it’s an important step in bridging the gap between technical and human solutions.

We will work with you to build your Cyber Security program and the awareness training involved.

STAFF TRAINING

Cybercrime is one of the predominant threats to the financial industry today, with attacks increasing in number and complexity daily. Compounded by the need to innovate, investments in technology and expansion of networks have also increased the number of entry points for attack, whilst the deployment of point solutions to protect assets also leads to gaps in the system. In response, financial organizations need to realize technology alone cannot militate against threats – a shift towards a threat-centric culture is also critical.
 
As the cyber threat landscape expands, so does need for good threat intelligence. The marketplace has exploded with sources of threat information, from the Internet, to open source code, to commercial threat data. But companies struggle with finding a way to collect the right threat information, to organize and prioritize it into true insights that are meaningful to their businesses.

Our goal is to assist executives and boards along with technology centric staff in quantifying the potential impact of cyber threats, and formulating effective mitigation strategies including both technical and non-technical solutions.
