News that CNA Financial was the victim of a recent cyberattack once again proves that no company, even a large insurer, is immune to these dangers. The company was the target of a very sophisticated attack that disrupted everything from its email systems to its network and website.

A positive security culture is a force multiplier for behaviors, beliefs and messages; it represents a critical social component that will either work for or against you. An important consideration here is that you already have a security culture whether you realize it or not. Just because you may not have been mindful in terms of establishing and nurturing a desired security culture doesn’t mean that one doesn’t exist.
