Head of Cyber Security Operations at Global Secure Solutions, Edem Glymin has urged small and medium businesses to start investing in cyber security to safe guard their digital assets from future attacks.
According to him, cyber security is a critical part of the country’s digital transformation agenda and as such businesses need to start investing in the right infrastructure and personnel.
Speaking at the 2022 Managed Security Services Forum, Mr. Glymin noted that the new growing technological trends in the business landscape has placed cyber security risk as part of enterprise risk and charged boards and managers of companies to start considering cyber security with all urgency.
“You cannot talk about digital transformation without talking about securing your digital assets. So we need to start from the board, they need to understand that, you need to have a security budget as well. Now, cyber security risk is a part of enterprise risk. At companies were more concerned about credit risk, operational risk and others but now, cyber security is now part of that whole enterprise risk”.
He added that businesses need to start asking the right questions, engage people and formulate a protection plan while following the laid down regulations and requirements.
The Managed Security Services forum is a global Cyber-security conference is put together by CTG Intelligence, and discusses the ever evolving cyber security space and seeks to proffer solutions to the challenges while exploring how managed service security can be employed to bridge the gaps in the ecosystem.
The 2022 edition held in Ghana, had cyber security experts and stakeholders share ideas on how to improve Ghana’s Cyber security ecosystem.
