ello and welcome to

On this month ’ s cover , Andrew Rose , Resident CISO for EMEA at Proofpoint , considers why the working from home economy is accelerating an overdue shift to people-centric security . The remote working model is a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and has meant that organisations and their employees have had to adapt to a new way of working , while avoiding potential cyberattacks . CISOs have therefore had to ensure security is up to scratch in order to avoid their workforce being exploited by cybercriminals . Rose discusses some of the current and developing cyber-risks , and how best to combat them with a people-centric security approach . He tells us why attackers are focused on people , not technology .

As cybercriminals up their game and continue to evolve their attack techniques , Tom Cartlidge , Head of Threat Intelligence , Six Degrees , offers insight on the latest phishing trends to enable organisations to adapt and take the appropriate measures . We learn how to mitigate risk in the developing cyberthreat landscape , on page 18 .

This issue , for our ‘ Editor ’ s Question ’, we take a look at some of the advantages of using automation for enterprises ,

and how such capabilities are secure . Industry experts : Peter Margaris , Senior Director of Product Marketing , Skybox Security ; David Shepherd , Global VP of Sales Engineering at Ivanti ; and Mark Anderson , Senior Director , Global Solutions Architecture EMEA , Equinix , offer their thoughts .

For this month ’ s ‘ Industry Unlocked ’, we explore how security impacts developments in the energy sector . Raj Samani , Chief Scientist and Fellow at McAfee , shares his wealth of knowledge and best practice advice on how organisations can ensure they are protecting their operations and managing risk in the energy supply chain , and how to best detect and avoid breaches .

To round off , we ‘ Go Phish ’ with Jay Ryerse , CISSP , Vice President of Cybersecurity Initiatives at ConnectWise , to find out how he landed in his role , and how he likes to relax and unwind outside the office .

I hope you enjoy the read and if you ’ d like to contribute to any future issues , please don ’ t hesitate to get in touch at alix @ lynchpinmedia . co . uk
