Jim Simpson, CEO of Blumira, strives to remove the barriers that prevent smaller teams from achieving successful security programs. Read Jim Simpson's full executive profile here.

In the past, the general attitude around cybersecurity was that a company’s security team would protect the organization from external threats, or a company might think it was too small to be a target. Companies would lean on technology such as firewalls and antivirus software, believing these solutions alone would be enough to stave off an attack. As digital tools and devices have become a bigger part of our daily lives, cyber threats have become more common and sophisticated.

More access points to an organization’s network means that every person must be more aware of what they’re doing to follow security protocols and stay vigilant against potential cyber threats. As organizations aim to mitigate potential cyber risks, they should consider all employees part of their line of defense by giving them the tools to prevent a cyber event.

Many organizations consider security training a one-and-done experience. However, security education should be ongoing to create a more cyber-aware culture and increase familiarity with emerging threats.
