Small company – Big cybersecurity issues
This week we speak with Achim von Michel, the press secretary of the German Association of Small and Medium Businesses. We discuss the need for SMBs to take cyber security seriously, some of the challenges these types of companies face such as skills shortages and bureaucracy, as well as the benefits of working for smaller companies. In ‘Small company – Big cybersecurity issues’ we discuss: How SMBs can ensure they remain cyber secure The challenges faced by smaller companies in terms of bureaucracy, skills gap, and tough competition How German companies are still synonymous with excellence Why SMBs are great places to work for How feasible a hybrid work model is for SMBs About Phishy Business Fed up with the same old cybersecurity stories? Come with us on a journey that explores the lesser-known side. Whether it’s social engineering, taking criminals to court or the journalists hunting down hackers — our new podcast series, Phishy Business, looks for new ways to think about cybersecurity. Mimecast’s very own Brian Pinnock and Alice Jeffery are joined by guests from a range of unique security specialisms. Each episode explores tales of risk, reward and just a dash of ridiculousness to learn how we can all improve in the fight to stay safe.
