Let’s agree on one thing: the people who work at your firm are smart people. Right? 

There’s no way that they would fall for one of those phishing attacks that we read about in the paper all the time. Or is there? As the  person with the CIO job, one of your biggest issues is that the bad guys  who are attacking your corporate network are getting more  sophisticated, more prevalent, and more dangerous every day because they  understand the importance of information technology. These bad guys  come in all sorts of different forms. Organized criminals attempt to  steal your financial records, terrorists try to encrypt your systems as a  part of a ransomware attack,  and even whole countries are trying to gain access to your systems so  that they can lay there dormant until it suits them.
