Local businesses are being encouraged to report security vulnerabilities within their organisations.This, as the Government continues to build resilience in the country’s cyber ecosystem.
Head of the Jamaica Cyber Incident Response Team Lt. Col. Godphey Sterling, made the appeal while stating that such reports will better help in tackling cybercrimes, by keeping the Government aware of what is happening in the various sectors, and improve how businesses protect clienteles’ data.
While there is no legislation that mandates the disclosure of weaknesses in cyber defence or cybersecurity breaches within companies, Lt. Col. Sterling said the Cyber Incident Response Team stands “ready to continue to push this dialogue”.
