How To Grow During The Recession

How To Grow During The Recession

Want to Grow? Commit to digital trust.

You should see >10% Annual Growth Rate on your top and bottom lines.

If you’re like many of the CISOs, IT or Business Leaders I speak with: one of the biggest problems you have right now is to reduce budgets and remain lean as we go into this recession.

Without being understaffed.

Not only do you now have more headaches while you deal with internal and external security threats while simultaneously reducing costs...

You’re scared that if you’re unable to change things, you may end up with a fine, ransomware attack, or a breach which will greatly impact your company’s bottom line.

It’s a challenging time. Having an airtight security strategy will help.

Take An Anticipatory Approach To Cybersecurity

A CEO who takes an anticipatory approach to security should see 85% fewer cyber incidents. Without increasing costs.

Compared to a CEO focused on reasonable compliance.

Unable to Attract Specialists?

There's a global shortage of 3.4 million security specialists. You need a process.

If you have a process, and you're still unable to attract security specialists into your business, you may be missing out key steps.

Here are four things you can do:

  • Have a fast-track process for Top Performers
  • Post a job advert, not a job description: Use “AIDA”
  • “Time Kills Deals” – Plan your interview process in advance
  • Work with a specialist cyber and information security search firm
