Recommendations
Europe is a world leader both in the implementation of IT and telecommunications technologies and in manufacturing and industry. As a result, the cyberthreat landscape is very broad-based in this region. With human error playing a major role in most cybersecurity incidents, raising employee cyber awareness should be one of the top priorities for European companies, especially in the wake of the new GDPR regulations coming into effect in May 2018.
