Ep. 181: Reputational Risk in the Cyber Age

In this high-energy episode of Cyber Security Matters, Christian and Dominic talk with Paige Strand, Director of Marketing and Communications for irlabs.   In this episode we will cover:   Why it is so important for board members and executive leadership to be part of cyber incident response planning.  What good communication of the cyber incident response plan looks like for small and midsize businesses. What the current climate is for executives and board members regarding the reputational risk of a cyber attack. How much better is it to proactively plan a cyber attack response versus trying to mitigate the damage after an attack event. What augmented reality (AR) is and how it is impacting communication in business.   For being a loyal listener, we have a special offer from this week’s sponsor, Senteon: a free trial of their cross compliance database.  Please click on the link provided and follow the instructions below: https://app.senteon.co/   In order to access the mapping database, make a user account to access the home page.  On the left side of the bar, click on the title: ‘Catalog’ and within this screen, select ‘4 columns showing’.  From here, you can add in whichever regulated framework you would like to see cross mapping for.  Once signed up, the trial allows you to deploy up to 10 agents and run a gap assessment to see your current configurations versus the CIS benchmark.
