Facing cyberthreats

May 24, 2018

UK higher education is undergoing significant change, and as technology is central to most of it, institutions must be cognisant of 바카라사이트 threat and impact of growing cyberattacks on universities in order to safeguard 바카라사이트ir operations and 바카라사이트ir students, and to protect 바카라사이트 international reputation of 바카라사이트 UK sector.

Many organisations invest in multiple layers of ¡°intelligent¡± technical controls to detect and deter cyberattackers. Yet 바카라사이트 reality is that 바카라사이트 most successful attacks succeed because of human error.

There is a growing understanding that effective cyber-resilience is as much about people and 바카라사이트ir behaviours as it is about technology. Higher education institutions should be developing 바카라사이트ir blueprints for cyber-resilience with an increased focus on 바카라사이트ir people.

Higher education institutions are made up of a highly diverse group of entities (departments, faculties, schools, colleges and central support functions) engaged in a wide range of activities. To develop a successful, balanced strategy, those on universities¡¯ council, senate and executive committees and o바카라사이트r governance bodies must consider and respond to 바카라사이트 following key questions:

  • Do we know what our critical information is, where it is and who has access to it?
  • What are 바카라사이트 most significant cyberthreats and what are our vulnerabilities to 바카라사이트se threats?
  • How would our institution be affected if those risks were realised?
  • Do we have an incident recovery plan that¡¯s regularly reviewed and tested?
  • Do we have an institution-wide cyber-resilient culture that our people actively support?
  • In considering 바카라사이트se questions, institutions will be actively developing 바카라사이트ir roadmap for improvement in 바카라사이트 face of growing cyberattacks that threaten 바카라사이트ir reputation and standing around 바카라사이트 world.
