As the former CEO of Cisco famously said, “there are two types of companies: those that have been hacked, and those that don’t yet know they have been hacked.”
CommCore CEO Andy Gilman teamed up with Priya Shah of ShahSquared Consulting recently to write an article for Forbes Agency Council on one of the hottest topics out there: how companies can prepare for ransomware, phishing, and cyber attacks.
“Cyber protection has to be a team sport, whether it’s a skilled group of internal professional resources or a mix of in-house talent and external cyber advisors,” they advise. “The team includes IT, legal, forensics, risk management, internal and external communications and C-suite endorsement.”
CommCore can help you create and implement your cyber security communications plan, as well as run simulations so your team is ready when crisis strikes.
We’re proud once again to have our expertise featured in Forbes Agency Council, an invitation-only community for executives in successful public relations, media strategy, creative and advertising agencies.
