Agenda
• The Need to Focus on Cybersecurity
• The Cybersecurity Training Path
• The Training Opportunity
• CyberSAFE
• CompTIA
• CyberSec First Responder
• Advanced Security Courses
• Q/A
Limiting Business Growth
• The average cyber attack:
• Is detected in 170 days
• Is resolved in 45 days once detected
• Costs the organization $1.6 million
• There’s more than lost profits at risk
• Compromised customer data
• Business disruption
• Reputational damage and legal action
• Stolen employee information
Beyond the Fortune 1000
• SMBs need to be concerned about cybercrime as well
• Studies indicate 60% of SMBs go out of business
within six months of an attack
• Smaller companies lack the resources of corporate
America
• The SMB is the driver of the American economy
• 64% of all net-new jobs
• 54% of all US sales
Solutions to the Problem
• Traditionally businesses have relied on preventative
measures to protect networks
• Firewalls, antivirus software, etc.
• Securing networks requires a
multi-faceted approach
• HW/SW solutions
• Process
• People
• The key is ensuring all are working together to
strengthen an organization’s security posture
The Importance of People
• No amount of investment in HW/SW solutions will
totally protect your network
• Process is key, though useless without trained
professionals to implement it
• People are the key piece of the
security puzzle
• Develop, operate, manage,
and enforce an organization’s
security capabilities
