How was one of the world’s biggest media companies brought to its knees by a cyber hack? This time we hear how hackers gained access to Sony Pictures in 2014 by manipulating the sociology and psychology of staff.

The truth is, a company can invest millions in cybersecurity technology, but social engineering tactics can allow hackers to gain access to an organisation’s IT through the individuals that work there.

Plus, it’s not just big organisations that can be exposed to ransomware and other attacks. Whatever size your business is and whatever sector, you could be vulnerable.

So how can a company overcome the enormous threat social engineering poses to its data and information security? Becca and Dave bring you expert insights and advice into what you should be doing in your business today, supported by ISO 27001 frameworks.

Geoff White is an author and investigative journalist with a special interest in organised crime and technology. He says that tech companies need to think about ALL the ways their products can be used, be that for good or harm.

Javvad Malik returns with advice for anyone faced with phishing and vishing communications, and Dr Jessica Barker discusses how hacking groups can target individuals to have a devastating impact on their lives.

Professor Keith Martin from Royal Holloway University is leading research into information security that could inform the tools and practises of business in the future. But one thing all our guests agree on is the power of people and culture to protect a business. They discuss how to engage staff in information security on a day-to-day basis.

This time we’re delving into best practises for IT leaders looking to prevent data breaches through third party access. Don’t know what that is? David and Becca will be unveiling more high profile slip-ups and mishaps and exploring how you can protect against cyberattacks.

How clued up are you on who has access to sensitive information, networks or other data in your business? What about individuals who have left the business and contractors with temporary access?

It’s so easy to leave the door open to a cyber hack via third-parties, but it’s also easy to make a few changes that minimise the risks to your business and customers. There’s plenty of guidance around the ISO standards in this podcast too.

Steve Wright is the founder of Privacy Culture, an organisation that works with global clients on data protection, privacy and cybersecurity. Steve’s 30 years in the business has given him a broad perspective on how people can adapt to changing technology and IT to stay compliant.

Ash Patel of ECI Partners returns to share how businesses large and small can be prey to attacks and why compliance around third-party access is so important to investors. If your business is going to survive, cybersecurity is a part of every leader’s toolkit.

How do laws protect businesses from data breaches, software failures, and IT mishaps—and when do they leave you liable? In this first episode, Dave and Becca tackle the fundamentals of compliance and information security. They explore how businesses like yours can safeguard sensitive data and avoid common pitfalls that lead to negligence.

The episode features a deep dive into the CrowdStrike incident, in which a software update caused a ‘boot loop’ malfunction for a small percentage of customers—but that small percentage included critical industries like airlines and financial services. Dave and Becca unpack the ripple effect of one technical error and what could have been done to prevent such a major IT outage. What can we all learn to help improve information security and compliance in business?

Joining the conversation is technology and compliance lawyer Jonathan Armstrong, who sheds light on the latest changes in data protection laws and how legislation is adapting to today’s evolving tech landscape. His insights help businesses navigate the fine line between legal protection and liability in an increasingly digital world.
