How Erik is building a better working world
“Cybersecurity is not simply about implementing advanced technology and tools; it's largely about managing human behavior. Humans are often the weakest link in the security chain, prone to falling for phishing scams, using weak passwords, or accidentally downloading malware into their systems. My goal is to guide clients in an understandable and clear way towards safer and better advancement in the world of technology.
My curious personality has led me to gain a broad experience in cybersecurity; from hands-on programming of IAM tools and a vast bunch of assessments and audits to cybersecurity architecture and cybersecurity maturity development. The holistic approach to cybersecurity includes not only robust technology but also comprehensive training and strong policies to guide human behavior in a secure direction.”
