Information Security in Government organizations

Far-reaching consequences of cybercrime for the Netherlands

Government organizations exist first and foremost to serve the citizens of the Netherlands. To do so, they rely on various systems containing large volumes of data. Hackers recognize the value of this data too. That’s why government organizations are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals.

Cybersecurity awareness prevents a lot of trouble

A cyberattack impacts not only the organization itself, but also the citizens of the Netherlands. Employees who know what safe online behavior is—and who actually practice it—reduce the risk of a successful cyberattack.

By raising awareness among your employees about the dangers of cybercrime, you can prevent a great deal of trouble—and cost. Did you know that in 90% of cyberattacks, unsafe online behavior by an employee is the root cause?
