If Cyber Security isn’t a product, then what exactly is it? It’s many things, actually.
Cyber Security is a PROCESS. The process consists of vulnerability assessments to determine where you need protection (in your networks, computers, firewalls, etc.); implementing security tools (including policies and procedures); training personnel; conducting penetration tests; and monitoring and responding to threats.
Cyber Security is a LIVING ORGANISM. The process of conducting assessments, revising policies, adding new defenses, and providing continuous training reflects the evolving nature of improving cybersecurity to keep pace with increasing threats.
It is a PARTNERSHIP between the team leading the implementation of the process (the cybersecurity team) and the IT team, management, and staff who are part of the process.
Cyber Security then becomes a STATE OF MIND. It is a mindset that everyone in the organization adopts in their roles. As they use technology tools, the security of those tools becomes second nature.
Therefore, the ultimate goal is for cybersecurity to become a CULTURE in which everyone in your organization accepts their responsibility for data security and operational protection.
The moral of the story is “Cyber Security is not a destination…Cyber Security is a Journey!”
