Communications – PwnDefend

What if breach communications were honest?

Armed with my trusty sidekick, this morning I thought I would see what an LLM would make if I asked it to create public comms for common cyber incidents…. for basically every scenario… it really wanted to tell everyone no data was accessed! Which is amazing, because in almost every incident I’ve seen: Data is accessed!

In a business email compromise (BEC) scenario…. the clue is in the name, it’s already a compromise of confidentiality!

Current State Cyber Challenges and why communication is important

Currently I’d list some of the major challenges we face as a civilisation as the following (clearly not exhaustive etc.)

The general population largely don’t understand cyber
Lots of people think there is nothing they can really do
People have shockingly bad personal cyber security
A large number of organisations have shockingly poor cyber security postures
People’s passwords are often ridiculously weak
People re-use passwords all the time
People seem to believe we have “magic nation state cyber shields”
Organisation’s largely do not invest adequately in cyber security
