Cyber Security: attack surface

In my last post I discussed some of the wider aspects of cyber security in an attempt to abstract the discussion from pure IT security.

Cyber Security: let’s talk about terminology

A few years ago I was on the team that developed the UK’s Cyber Doctrine for the Ministry of Defence. One of the first tasks was to agree on a common lexicon, then map similar terms across different organisations and discard any legacy terms to avoid confusion. No other government department had decided to implement a common framework for cyber security, let alone define a common language to be used. This was a bit of a first.

As both an enabler and recipient of marketing automation activities, I’ve been very aware of the impact of recent cyber security events on email marketing, on both sides of the fence.
