Your Security Stack is Missing Something...
The Digital Landscape is Changing
The world of cybersecurity is evolving at an unprecedented pace. With the rise of Artificial Intelligence in the hands of threat actors, cyberattacks have become increasingly sophisticated and successful. By 2025, cybercrime costs are expected to reach $10.5 trillion annually—up from $3 trillion in 2015. Against common belief, small businesses are not exempt from this trend accounting for 43% of cyber incidents.
The problem with your Security Stack
Many organizations heavily rely on their security stack using tools like firewalls, EPP, IDPS, and MFA to protect their networks and rightfully so. These tools are essential for securing your organization’s infrastructure. However, the problem we see time and again isn’t within the organization’s security itself; it’s in the vulnerabilities introduced by their vendors and customers, who allow threat actors into the network. Strong cybersecurity requires more than just having the right tools—it demands a holistic framework that includes EVERYONE in the industry ecosystem.
Community-Based Security
Enter community-based cybersecurity. Instead of the government doing its best, then companies operating in isolation, industries can form utilities or cooperatives where risk intelligence is shared, resources are pooled, and efforts are united to combat digital threats.
This approach empowers entire industries by fostering collaboration, creating buying groups to reduce the cost of high-quality tools, and providing industry-specific intelligence to prepare for emerging threats.
It's time for change?
It’s time to rethink how businesses do cybersecurity. By recognizing the need for every party in the industry to be secure, we can begin to adopt add a membership to a community-based security organization to our security stack. By building industry alliances or industries "NATOs", we can ensure businesses are better equipped to face the evolving cybercrime landscape.
Let’s make the switch.
