Cyber Security & DISP: Is Your Business Really Secure?

You’ve got an IT provider, antivirus, passwords and hopefully multi-factor authentication. So your business is cyber secure, right?

Well, perhaps there’s a little more to it than that.

In Episode 6 of The Defence Reality Check, Esther Anderson is joined by Riaan Bronkhorst from RSM to talk about cyber security from a business perspective, not just an IT one.

Who actually has access to your systems and information? What happens when an employee leaves? If you’ve outsourced your IT, have you also outsourced responsibility for your cyber security? And how would you know if someone had already gained access to your systems?

We also unpack the Defence Industry Security Program (DISP). What is it, when might your business need it, and what does it really take to meet and maintain the requirements?

Then there’s your wider supply chain. You might have your own house in order, but what about the other businesses and providers connected to your systems?

Riaan shares practical advice on understanding your current cyber security position, identifying gaps and deciding where to start.

Because cyber security isn’t simply about protecting your computers. It’s about protecting your business, your information and your ability to keep operating.

And you certainly don’t want to discover the gaps after you’ve won a Defence contract.
