Forty-four trillion gigabytes. That’s the anticipated size of the “digital universe” by 2020, according to the IDC Digital Universe Study. Encompassing all data created, replicated, and consumed in one year, this digital universe is largely created and used by a company’s workforce, but the task of protecting this enormous amount of data from hackers falls largely to IT security teams. Data security professionals have built up sophisticated defenses against hackers targeting company networks and systems through high-tech attacks. However, as we layer cryptography with firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and other defenses, hackers will need to identify a new access point to proprietary company information and I believe we’ll soon begin to see a profound shift from malicious parties hacking systems to hacking people.

The people we choose to surround ourselves with, personally and professionally, have a huge impact.
My career in cybersecurity is a testament to that fact, and I am thankful to have had many influential peers and mentors along the way. My earliest cybersecurity influencer was Cliff Stoll, and his book The Cuckoo's Egg from the early 1990s.

Common Internal Vulnerabilities. There is a perception by many organisations that their internal network is a relatively safe haven from attackers. The thought is that well configured firewall rules and regular external penetration testing of internet connections provide adequate protection for the internal network. “We are safe inside the firewall and we trust our users, so we don’t need to worry so much about hardening, patching, access control and the rest” is an all too familiar view.
However, although the security of externally facing networks has improved, we have seen a rise in social engineering, client side attacks and physical intrusions into networks as a means of bypassing these external network controls. Recent high profile cases where criminals planted rogue equipment inside networks to steal money are likely to be just the tip of the iceberg. Physical Intrusion Social Engineering.
