A partner, cyber security, data and privacy global lead and head of the Washington office at the Brunswick Group, Little made this assertion while delivering the international keynote address at theWhile these realities might drive cyber security professionals to hold their cards a little closer to their chests, he encourages the opposite. Within reason, of course.

According to Little, common mistakes include failing to elevate cyber security as a major business priority, not considering the needs of different internal and external stakeholders and, perhaps most importantly, noy being adequately prepared for when an attack happens. Companies spend too much time thinking about ‘if’ something happens but fail to adequately prepare for ‘when’ something happens.Little went on to share some of the lessons he and his team have learned from handling over 150 cyber incidents. Here, again, he highlighted the importance of being prepared. “The best offence is a good defence,” he said.
