The reason is that cyberattacks are getting more sophisticated and firewalls and VPNs were built for a time when most people were working within the confines of an office. Even with cyber spending at an all-time high—to the tune of $219 billion globally—ransomware attacks continue to occur. Train employees to be vigilant.
Regularly updating and patching systems, including antivirus software, firewalls, and SCADA networks, can mitigate this risk. Multi-factor authentication (MFA): MFA ensures that access to critical systems is granted only after verifying user credentials through multiple channels.
ISO 22398: Covers the principles of planning, conducting, and developing training programs to prepare teams for critical situations through practical exercises and simulations. Collect and safeguard critical artifacts such as event logs, system logs, and authentication records from corporate systems.

You should also exercise caution when partnering with foreign suppliers or manufacturers—particularly in regions without access to modern tech infrastructure—as they may not have the same level of cyber awareness. Enforce enterprise-grade antivirus, firewalls, and internet security software across all connected devices.
