Why Choose us?
Metro-access Consulting will help you debunk the following myths and misconceptions about cyber security
- Cyber-threats only come from outside. This is not true at all. To the contrary insider threats are known to the most destructive and more dangerous than those from the outside. Imagine a disgruntled employee or one who has been laid off unceremoniously! At Metro-access or Secure Access, we take a holistic approach to look at the high-level security posture of your organization before we recommend a solution.
- Cybersecurity is entirely an IT/Technical problem, why should we care? Security is a shared responsibility where everyone from the board to the shop-floor need to play their part in a coordinated manner. Therefore, cyber security ceases to be an issue for the technical people only but a user behavior where everyone has to leave by the rules of cyber-hygiene
- Silver bullet (Solutions). Some leaders in organizations think if they invest in an expensive piece of security appliance, it will solve ALL their cyber-threats all the time. This is completely inaccurate as cyber criminals have become more organized, sophisticated and more persistent and have developed ways to evade the traditional security defenses. Therefore Metro-access will help you with comprehensive and layered security some of which uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to counter the known and unknown threats.
- Someone else will be compromised, not them! The truth of the matter is no-one is immune to cyber-attacks if you have connected devices. Recent researches have shown that it is now a matter of “when” not “if”. John Chambers the former CEO of Cisco once said, “There are two types of organizations, one that knows they have been attacked and the other that does not know”. This means some organizations may have been compromised some years back, but the cyber criminal may be waiting for the right opportunity to pounce on them.
