Penetration testing (pentesting) in an ERP system is crucial in safeguarding your organisation’s sensitive data and operations. ERP systems are the backbone of scalable companies, housing critical financial, operational, and customer information. A successful cyberattack on an ERP system can have devastating consequences, including financial loss, reputational loss, and operational disruption.
As a C-suite executive, safeguarding your company’s sensitive data and financial assets is paramount. While firewalls and antivirus software play a crucial role, they represent only one piece of the cybersecurity puzzle. Traditional penetration testing, which focuses on technical vulnerabilities in systems and networks, often overlooks the human element – the factor exploited by smishing attacks.
In today’s digital landscape, where data reigns supreme, safeguarding your business’s sensitive information is paramount. While firewalls and robust cybersecurity protocols remain crucial, a new breed of cybercrime is emerging – one that bypasses the digital realm and targets your most vulnerable asset: your employees. This insidious threat is vishing, a social engineering attack that leverages phone calls and voice messages to trick individuals into revealing confidential information.
Cyberattacks are often portrayed as complex operations launched by sophisticated criminals. While this is true, robust cybersecurity defences can thwart even the most elaborate attack plan. However, a growing threat lies within your organisation itself: accidental insiders.
Data exfiltration – the theft of sensitive information – is a growing threat, posing severe financial and reputational risks.
