Learn how to Identify Cyber Threat Actors who are out to harm your business

You need to know who is out to harm your business. Cyber adversaries are many and you must have a clear understanding of who the attackers are and how they operate. This workflow is inspired by Sun Tzu's treatise 'The Art of War' and suggests the following:

If you know the enemy and you know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained, you will also suffer a defeat.
If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

This workflow, taken from our NCSC-Certified Cyber Incident Planning and Response course shares ideas on how to identify cyber threat actors or cyber adversaries who can cause irreversible damage to your bottom-line and to your business reputation.

Do note that the majority of cybersecurity standards such as ISO 27001, ISO 22301, PCI DSS recommend organisations to develop a Data Breach or Cyber Incident Response Plan.
