Cybersecurity breaches are heavily affecting our society, and the protection of assets has become big business. We see cybersecurity-related issues daily in the news, such as ransomware attacks, identity theft and data breaches. In recent years, we have seen more financially-motivated adversaries and state-sponsored attacks, making it an uneven playing field, especially for smaller organisations with limited resources.
