As digitalization expands and finds new horizons, the ever-looming threat of Cybersecurity will rear its ugly head.

They say preparing ourselves for impending threats is a key component of cybersecurity. Various studies show that human actions account for a large part of cyber-attacks. A report published by Verizon found that the human element was responsible for 82% of the cyber-breaches studied.
Having exposure to cyber threats first-hand helps companies respond immediately and disclose a data breach immediately. The longer one waits the less trustworthy the company becomes. Prior experience helps the management to be resilient with respect to running core operations while remediating the cyber threats and executing a crisis management plan subsequently. The teams who participate in the drills learn from their mistakes and do not get caught off-guard when a real security breach occurs.
