State-sponsored hackers. Ransomware. Supply chain attacks. Spyware. Malware. The list of cyber threats keeps growing. At every organization, from the smallest to the largest, cybersecurity has become a priority issue. It’s not enough to respond to threats–it is equally important that cyber professionals are prepared to protect and defend the most valuable assets of an organization from being compromised.
