Valuable proprietary assets, architectural drawings, blueprints, formulas and equipment specifications for theft, ransom and financial gain.
Employee data kept online, in 3rd party software and in the cloud:
Access to full names, addresses, Social Security numbers, health information and bank details for theft and financial gain.
Access to larger prizes within the same supply chain:
Smaller firms are often targeted because of their supply chain relationships with larger companies.
Valuable information held in new technology and software:
More technology adoption, such as “Building Information Modelling (BIM)”, telematics and project management software means more rich data, sensitive information is accessible online for theft, ransom and financial gain.
High value tools and equipment at risk:
Cybercriminals hack into security systems and CCTV on-site causing property damage and theft.
“Imagine having to explain to a customer, contractor or supplier that their project is delayed or their plans and other sensitive personal data has been stolen or held to ransom.”
