Why Do Humans Always Play a Crucial Role in Cybersecurity?
It is undeniable that the “human factor” is the weakest link and also the most constantly changing variable in building a safe and secure digital environment. So how can we take control of our systems while still ensuring their security?
We can equip our computers with the latest and most powerful antivirus software, deploy advanced cybersecurity solutions for our systems, and protect sensitive data behind multiple layers of security firewalls.
However, it only takes one second of distraction, one wrong click, or opening a suspicious email to bypass all those antivirus tools, firewalls, and security solutions—creating an entry point for hackers to access critical and confidential data.
It is undeniable that the “human factor” is the weakest link and the most unpredictable variable in building a safe and secure digital environment. So how can we both take control of our systems and keep them truly secure?
