Wirkliche Cyberresilienz: Cybersicherheit ist eine Angelegenheit der Unternehmenskultur
Im Falle eines erfolgreichen Angriffs sind die Schuldigen mitunter schnell gefunden: Eine Lücke in der Firewall, eine geöffnete Phishing-Mail oder eine übersehene Warnmeldung. Doch ein Blick in die Praxis zeigt: IT-Sicherheit scheitert nicht an Technologien oder Fehlverhalten, sondern bereits grundsätzlich an einem Mangel an Unternehmenskultur. Wenn Cybersicherheit in einer Organisation nur als eine schlecht durchgesetzte……
