In the world of cybersecurity it has been an eventful few years – we’ve had the pandemic, the rush to remote work, supply chain issues, the list goes on. In 2022 we saw things beginning to normalise in some areas so many might have felt that we’d see some sort of stability in the area of cybersecurity, but in fact we’ve seen the exact opposite. In this episode SonicWall experts take a closer look at the cybersecurity key trends highlighted in the 2023 SonicWall Cyber Threat Report.You can downlod the rull report here.
Based on data from the mid-year update to the 2022 SonicWall Cyber Threat Report, the United States, the U.K. and other cybercrime hotspots are seeing decreases in cybercriminal activity, while many less-affected regions are seeing an uptick in threats. One such region is Australia where a major telco recently suffered a massive data breach. As part of Cybersecurity Awareness Month this episode analyses this recent breach. We discuss what happened, how it happened, why it happened and how you can make sure it doesn’t happen to your organisation!

For organisations MSSPs are an efficient and cost-effective way to protect their data and network from intrusions while reducing the complexity of the process. For example, hiring an in-house cybersecurity team can be more expensive than working with an MSSP plus MSSPs can also help businesses save money on equipment and software tools, key reasons why many businesses are now turning to MSSPs to secure their organisations. Moving from VAR to MSSP can be resource and cost intensive which is why SonicWall and Exertis together have listened to our channel partners and launched a new managed security service offering to plug this gap.
