Business IT expert Calvert Technologies warns that complacency is the greatest danger facing organisations that seek productivity and cost benefits by embracing technology trends such as mobility and the Cloud.

The media is awash with news of the possible hacking of the plans for ASIO’s new headquarters in Canberra. As announced on ABC’s Four Corners program  the story reveals that hackers, working from overseas, have targeted key Australian Federal Government departments and major corporations with intent to steal national security secrets and vital business information. There have also been recent reports of secret US military data being obtained by hackers – this includes weapons system information for the F-35 fighter.

As shocking as this news may be, what can be more alarming is the fact that it’s not just government and big business that is targeted. With the rapid growth in Internet connectivity, online services, BYOD policies, mobile devices and remote access (to name just a few) the chances of any business, or home, being compromised have risen to new levels. The crooks are getting more cunning and widening their attack targets.

Some of the common views we come across are “it won’t happen to me”, and “I don’t have anything the hackers would be interested in”. The first opinion is actually quite wrong as it’s not “if” it will happen to you but rather “when”. No company or individual is safe anymore. And the second opinion is undervaluing what these hackers can use you and your technology for.
