Session 3: Cybersecurity
Speaker: Rakee Das
Overview:
Rakee stresses the critical role of education in cybersecurity, noting that human error is a major factor in incidents and that frequent training can mitigate risks. Organisations must have robust incident response plans to manage potential cyber threats effectively, as recent high-profile attacks have shown vulnerabilities across various sectors. Proactive measures, including the use of passphrases and multi-factor authentication, are essential for enhancing security and reducing the impact of cyber incidents.
