Cybersecurity risk 3: new (unsafe) software suppliers

For example, for organizations that process healthcare data (think of hospitals, insurers, government institutions, municipalities, general practitioners, dentists, clinics, and so on!) there is a hard deadline to comply with the NTA 7516 this year. This standard restricts unsafe data sharing. The NTA standard is a blueprint that will probably apply to multiple sectors in the coming years.

Advice: Discuss with the security experts in your organization to what extent online communication is legally sealed for your home-working colleagues. If you take the NTA 7516 and of course the AVG (also known as the GDPR) as a starting point, you're good!

To start with, more and more colleagues are korea telegram data using suppliers such as Teams and Zoom to bridge the distance to their customers, patients, colleagues, citizens and clients. Are these tools safe enough to do a doctor's consultation, for example? Is it actually useful to share files with personal data in this way? And do employees without proper training actually know how to use these new cloud solutions safely?

Often a solution stands or falls with how it is used within the organization. Ask the reader: do you actually know how to share a file safely with colleagues? If the answer is no, you are probably not the only one in your organization and an awareness training might be a good idea.

Advice: Your organization has probably chosen a solution in a hurry, but you are paying the highest price and employees are probably not at all satisfied with the use. Do some research on cloud suppliers, secure communication tools and VPN providers now that we have caught our breath from the switch to new suppliers. Check carefully whether they really meet the standards for your organization.

Cybersecurity Risk 4: Phishing by Cybercriminals

Thanks to the corona crisis, your inbox is flooded with one corona offer after another. Google blocks 100 million phishing emails every day. Of these, 18 million emails are corona-related . This number is expected to continue to increase this year and the first figures are worrying.
