Super interesting read about a ransomware incident that hit roughly 40 museums in Paris. One of them being the Grand Palais, a current Olympic venue.In the article they talk about the attack, but what I found really interesting was reading through the precautions they took to minimize the impacts of an incident. The French Prime Minister warned that cyberattacks would be inevitable, with an estimate of 8-12x the number of attempts in the 2021 Tokyo Games and that the biggest challenge was finding way to “limit their impact.” Fortunately, the attackers were not able to successfully disrupt any games or exfiltrate any information. This just goes to show that even with the best tools and resources, you cannot 100% prevent a cyber incident from happening. However, you CAN limit the likelihood and impacts of a cyber incident by taking the right precautions.

    Did you know that the primary reason business decision makers tend to overlook cybersecurity solutions is due to cost concerns? In 2024, the average cost of a ransomware attack in the midsize market was $1.85 million. It's common for clients to only focus on enhancing their business security after experiencing a cyber incident. Remember, in today's threat landscape, a reactive approach will always end up costing more than a proactive security strategy.Learn more about how Vector Tech Group can help you proactively protect your business today. #Cybersecurity #SecuritySolutions #ProactiveApproach
