Infographic: What HR needs to know about cybersecurity

Leaders say cybersecurity will be their biggest challenge for the next 3-5 years, according to research. This infographic can guide you in crafting a cyber policy that protects your organisation in both the short and long-term.

Do your employees know a scam when they see one?

Threats to cybersecurity through scams, fraud and ‘phishing’ have been on the rise for several years now, robbing Australians of over $450 million collectively in 2023.

As awareness of these scams increases, so does the sophistication of online scammers and malware, making them increasingly dangerous to consumers and businesses alike. 

Research shows CEOs are clearly attuned to these threats. In a recent study by KPMG, CEOs voted cybersecurity risks as their number one challenge for the next three to five years.

However, no matter how knowledgeable leaders are about these risks, it only takes one weak link to put an entire system in jeopardy. As a result, effective cybersecurity measures require the entire organisation to be informed and on board.

The infographic below provides research-backed advice on common cyber risks, tips for building a cybersecurity policy and immediate ways to make your systems more secure.
