Solutions Review's Contributed Content Series is a collection of contributed articles written by thought leaders in enterprise software categories. William Agadzi, advisor to Noname Security, serves as our guide through the digital storm with best practices for cybersecurity training in the new era.
Imagine the shockwaves reverberating through Retool, a developer platform, when they discovered a few weeks ago that they had been breached through an SMS-based phishing attack, impacting 27 of their cloud customers. The operational impact was significant; the reputational, financial, and legal impacts loom. Another recent example is the breach at Okta, where cyber-criminals used a stolen credential to access their support case management system, impacting some customers.
These incidents, amidst the turbulent waves of the shifting cybersecurity landscape, are far from isolated. Many organizations, relying on vendor-provided training modules, find themselves grappling with real threats that evolve faster than their defenses - and their training - can keep pace.
