Cybersecurity Culture
Cybersecurity culture, encompassing organizational and individual levels, shapes an organization's values, behaviors, and practices. Its core objective is to protect information technology (IT) assets, sensitive data, and technology infrastructures against cyber threats and reduce IT risks in today's digital-centric business landscape. In today’s technology-centric business environment, where organizations encounter numerous cyber threats, effective IT risk management is crucial. An objective risk assessment—based on information relating to business requirements, human elements, and the security culture within an organisation—can provide a sound basis for informed decision making, effective risk prioritisation, and the implementation of suitable security measures. Asset valuation with enhanced objectivity should be considered in an established security culture. Therefore, mitigating subjectivity in IT risk assessments diminishes personal biases and presumptions to provide a more transparent and accurate understanding of the real risks involved and enhances cybersecurity culture.
