Cyber security as management failure insurance
Can the implementation of security measures be a solution to the failure of the statutory body? We will present two examples from practice where early adoption of a proactive stance in the field of cyber security could mitigate the consequences of a security incident - a ransomware attack.
Cybersecurity is not just technology, but an insurance policy against managerial mistakes and deferred decisions. When "nothing is happening," it’s tempting not to invest, but that’s exactly when risk is born. The lecture showed how apparent savings end in industrial shutdowns and long months of recovery. Just as we take out additional insurance when going to the mountains, organizations need cybersecurity as a backup against human errors and hasty exceptions. Most often, managers fail—those who postpone investments, rely on "the server is running," and ignore that an unsupported system is a ticking time bomb. This approach feeds the illusion of saving, but in reality only accumulates technical debt and increases the likelihood of a serious incident. Properly set rules that apply without exceptions can tame even early-morning ideas that break the consistency of processes.Why cybersecurity is insurance against managerial failure
