Employees are the weakest link in the cybersecurity chain.
Most of all cybersecurity incidents in organisations are caused by the human factor - mistakes, negligence, low digital literacy, etc. Cyber attacks lead to enormous losses and damage to the company. That's why businesses globally are increasingly investing in staff training in information security skills. But the methods used are often ineffective.
Emad Haffar, head of technical experts for the Middle East, Turkey and Africa, with cyber security firm Kaspersky tells us how the Kaspersky Automated Security Awareness Platform (ASAP) is created by leading cybersecurity experts to help protect small enterprises who cannot withstand the blow of a cyber attack.

Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
