Cyber Security is about people and analysis, not just products!

Even with the best Security Software and Services, people are still essential in cyber security. While automation and AI are becoming more prevalent in cyber security, human expertise remains critical in making sense of complex situations, understanding the context, and responding to novel threats. A well-rounded cyber security strategy often combines human intelligence, technology, and processes to create a robust defence against cyber threats.

Decision-making and Strategy: Cybersecurity professionals play a vital role in making strategic decisions about the security posture of an organization. They analyse risks, devise security policies, and determine the most appropriate security measures based on the organization's specific needs and threats.

Threat Intelligence and Analysis: Human analysts are crucial for interpreting and understanding complex threat intelligence data. They can identify patterns and trends in cyber threats, helping organizations stay ahead of evolving attack methods.

Incident Response and Mitigation: When a cyber incident occurs, human experts are required to investigate the issue, contain the attack, and carry out remediation activities. Quick and accurate decision-making during an incident can make a significant difference in minimizing the impact.

Security Architecture and Design: Cybersecurity professionals are responsible for designing secure IT infrastructure, networks, and systems. They ensure that security measures are integrated into the foundation of an organization's technology stack.
