A Foundation of Trust Towards The Cyber Security
Covid-19 pandemic broke out, it forced the globe to move online in which only the fit will survive and thrive. Governments issued an order to begin attending class remotely; restricted in-person business operation, encouraged employees to work from home; consumers moved toward online channels, industries have responded in turn. The shift towards digital operations, thanks to the Internet. And to be digitally fit, you need to be digitally trusted. In the digital world, trust is a simple function, for instance, I trust the certificate authority, therefore, I believe that I connect to the real website securely. Trust is the basic foundation that must be established and yet it is a fundamental challenge indeed. You may refer to the security experts, hire security professionals, buy bulletproof technologies solutions, and still it may not keep you safe. The dark side of trust, is trust unconditionally. Therefore, trust as little as possible, use evidence and experience to measure trustworthiness. You know better, be untrusting!?
