Cybersecurity threats exploit the increased complexity and connectivity of all types of systems operating into today’s society and economy, placing the Nation’s security, economy, and public safety and health at risk. Similar to financial and reputational risks, cybersecurity risk affects a company’s bottom line. It can drive up costs, affect revenue, and harm an organization’s ability to innovate and to gain and maintain customers. This presentation will highlight the basics of cybersecurity protection as an important component of an organization’s overall risk management.
