"Focus on those basics," he says. "Even if you look at some of the really complicated attacks, what you see at their heart: You see a server that was exposed. You see an RDP server that shouldn't have been there. You see a forgotten VPN endpoint."
In a video interview with Information Security Media Group, Taylor also discusses:
- How the move to large-scale remote working changed Canon;
- Today's threat landscape and how organizations can strengthen their defenses;
- How ransomware trends are changing cyber insurance.
