Simple cybersecurity practices like strong password management, cautious email handling, keeping personal and social devices up-to-date, and responsible online behaviour have a profound impact.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month is a collaboration between the government and private industry to empower everyone to protect their personal data from digital forms of crime.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month serves as a poignant reminder of the critical importance of safeguarding our digital landscapes, particularly within the legal domain, where a wealth of sensitive information resides. In an age where data related to ongoing research is the lifeblood of innovation-driven startups and companies, both legal professionals and digital service providers such as PatSeer bear an immense responsibility to protect the confidentiality and integrity of their clients’ intellectual assets.
In this digital era, legal research is not merely limited to law libraries and courtrooms; it is increasingly conducted on the World Wide Web, making it more vulnerable than ever to cyber threats. As the Chief Technology Officer of PatSeer, I encourage our legal colleagues to recognise the significant role they play in maintaining trust and safeguarding client data. By embracing cyber security awareness, legal professionals can equip themselves with the knowledge and tools needed to fortify their cyber defences.
In the field of online patent research and analysis, where PatSeer excels, we remain committed to providing a secure platform that our users can rely on. To achieve this, we have obtained the SOC2 Type 2 certification for PatSeer, thereby maintaining one of the highest security standards set for SaaS-based platforms. Our commitment to high-quality security and data protection is our main priority. We intend to continue investing in this area to ensure that we maintain our customers’ trust. Manish Sinha, CTO, PatSeer
As we celebrate Cyber Security Awareness Month 2023 with the theme ‘Cyber Safety Starts With YOU,‘ we aim to draw focus towards the immense power of individuals in the realm of digital security. In this era of interconnectivity, our online choices shape our personal cybersecurity and have a ripple effect across the digital network, impacting the collective safety of the online world. At Visionet, we believe that every click, every password, and every vigilant moment matters.
Empowerment starts with awareness. Simple cybersecurity practices like strong password management, cautious email handling, keeping personal and social devices up-to-date, and responsible online behaviour have a profound impact. They not only protect our data but also fortify the digital defences of organisations and society.
An individual’s commitment to cyber safety resonates across the digital landscape. Actions such as maintaining cyber hygiene, reporting suspicious activities, and staying informed about evolving threats form the foundation of a secure online world.
This year’s theme, ‘Cyber Safety Starts With YOU’ is more than a theme; it’s a call to action. It reminds everyone that each person is a catalyst for change in the cybersecurity realm. As society navigates the digital age, let these actions light the path for others towards a more secure and resilient cyberspace. This October, people should unite to protect, educate, and empower. Together, they will make a lasting impact. Bijo Chacko, Vice President and Head of Cloud and Infrastructure Delivery at Visionet
