OUR CUSTOMERS

“I'm a strong believer in a business focusing on its core competencies well; our core competencies aren't keeping servers running and having backups -- it's not where we can operate, and putting resources into that doesn't make sense at all," he says. "It's much better to put resources that would have been those things into improving our own offerings".

OUTSOURCING: THE UNSTOPPABLE TREND

• Despite alarms over cyberattack in the last five years, enterprise spending has been patchy, and actually declined in 2014

• Enterprise pend is rotating as data and applications move to the cloud, AV declines, cyber grows

• Organisations will avoid compliance and security spending if they can

• Compliance fines are a cost of doing business• Security industry relies on fear uncertainty and

doubt triggering widespread, well-deserved cynicism

• End-to-end encryption is highly successful as used in apps like WhatsApp, even the CIA finds it hard to break

• Emerging technologies like Blockchain have major potential

SECURITY IS AT THE TOP OF EVERYONE’S AGENDA

• Website goes down, but no communication to customers for 24hours, outage attributed to unspecified technical problems

• Rumours circulate that 4mn accounts have been accessed following a cyberattack, (the 3rd of the year for TalkTalk)

• TalkTalk admits data many have been compromised by cyberattack, 24 hours after breach, email goes out 72 hours after the attack telling customers passwords may have been accessed

• CEO gets in front of media but appears not to know if data is encrypted, says not obliged to decrypt legally

• TalkTalk messaging becomes increasingly incoherent, attributes data loss to a DDOS attack, calls SQL injection ‘sequential’

• Tells customers attack ‘only’ 160,000 accounts were affected (accessed by a 15 year old), even fewer had useful data accessed, PAN numbers were semi-tokenized

A CASE STUDY IN HOW NOT TO HANDLE A BREACH

Can you work out the company from the slogan / corporate statement?

• ‘We offer reliable, scalable and inexpensive cloud computing services. Feel free to join, pay only for what you use’

• ‘We are a bare metal cloud built for developers offering Intel and ARMv8’

• ’Don’t be evil’• ‘Be connected. Be discovered’• ‘Life is more fun when you live in the moment’• ‘Your margin is our opportunity’• ‘Architect’s of what’s next’

• ‘Our mission and values are here to help people and businesses throughout the world realise their full potential’

• ‘Earth’s most customer-centric Company’• ‘You have to see it to believe it’

THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE WON’T BITE BACK

‘The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one’s real and one’s declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish spurting out ink’ George Orwell
