We need to be aware of the criminal world around us in terms of digital security. Do we need a digital security team in our organization? Probably. Do we need to hire an expert? Possibly, though many are growing their own talent while they can still stay a bit ahead of the game.
If you aren't handling significantly sensitive data at the moment, then I recommend growing your own security talent from within, utilizing the skilled resources you already have who are already familiar with your business processes and client needs. Start it off as a project with a project manager and team. The end solution can be the creation of a two to three member internal cybersecurity team and department.
Whatever you do, complete inaction isn't the answer. While you cannot know what cybersecurity threats lie ahead, you can and should be proactive.
What about your organization? Are you currently taking specific measures to prevent data breaches on the projects you manage and the customer and internal data you handle? Have you experienced a significant cybersecurity incident? Please share and discuss.
