In his new role, Air Chief Marshal Peach is responsible for commanding and generating allocated joint capabilities.

You’ve spent months fixing the red items on an internal audit report and just passed a regulatory exam.  You’ve performed a network vulnerability assessment and network pen test within the last year and have fixes in place.  You’ve tightened up your information security policy and recently invested in a security information and event management (SIEM) solution.  You’re secure, right?

When a company prides itself in providing the most advanced and sophisticated network security solutions—and that company’s own network is hacked—brand insult is added to data injury. Not only must the company compensate customers for their losses, but the breach of information incurs an unquantified cost to its reputation.  No one wants to call on the services of the Fire Brigade whose own buildings burned down, and customers will invariably ask how a company’s security solutions can protect them if they couldn’t protect the company itself.
