Cyber threats in the Caribbean

ICT Pulse posted an article on Apr 11, 2018, discussing cyber threats in the Caribbean. Below are some key highlights:

  • Network security – and the lack thereof – continues to be a concern in the Caribbean
  • The roles and responsibilities of those handling data should be clarified, penalties for misuse and abuse should be outlined, and mechanisms should be put in place to reward adequate data protection and implementation of security best practices.
  • Niel advised all Caribbean nations to look at implementing data protection legislation in the very near future.
  • Niel is the Founder and Managing Director of Octave Consulting Group, a boutique advisory firm specializing in CIO advisory, cybersecurity, IT assurance and information risk management services.
