Cybersecurity is a growing concern for businesses of all sizes as cyber criminals’ increasingly sophisticated tactics continue to disrupt organizations. Gartner insight projected that businesses would spend more than $123 billion on security in 2020 and projects that figure to grow to $170.4 billion by 2022. Even with this growing global concern, hackers are still able to compromise corporate systems with ease on a frequent basis. This is due to organization lack of cybersecurity awareness and use of poor practices that result in their systems and data being compromised. With the COVID-19 pandemic, cyber threats have been exacerbated by operating remote workforces, the increasing skills gap in cybersecurity, and the growing use of internet-of-things (IOT) devices.
