Everyone needs to be Cyber Savvy.  Kris Budnik has worked in the industry for many years and built up a skill set that sets him apart. In his role as Chief Security Officer for FNB he is responsible for ensuring the bank is as secure as it can be. His discussion on Cyber Savvy sets the tone for the Microfocus 6 part series on Cyber Resilience. “The bigger the company the sooner the breach will occur.” Says Budnik. “It’s how quickly we can identify that it happened and recover which sets the teams apart.” And that’s why being Cyber Savvy is of such importance to an organization. For Budnik being Cyber Savvy is to be streetwise, practical and calm. We need to know what is happening in the cyber world and not panic at the headlines. A calm, informed demeanour can make the difference between effective management and widescale chaos. And therefore this is a team effort that spans the enterprise. Budnik answers a number of key questions whilst building a cyber resilience foundation and this episode is well worth a listen. He touches on subjects such as “what does a Cyber Savvy approach to security look like,” and “why don’t you stop attacks from happening?” His openness to collective security and sharing information is refreshing. Budnik acknowledges that at the heart of a strong security strategy is technology and a close vendor relationship, highlighted by his willingness to be on a podcast of this nature.
