Australian-based security firm SoSafe commences operations
In a bid to combat the rising tide of cyber threats, security company SoSafe has launched in Australia. The company's approach aims to help security teams manage human risk by turning AI into an ally.
SoSafe's ultimate goal is to create security cultures where safe behaviors become second nature. To achieve this, the company uses data-driven insights to make smarter security decisions and supports over 5,500 companies in 37 countries.
Jacqueline Jayne, a leading expert in the Australian market for cybersecurity, has been appointed as an advocate for human-centric security by SoSafe. Jayne's focus is on raising awareness of the human element of cybersecurity and protecting individuals online.
According to Jayne, the best defense against cyber threats is informed and empowered people. SoSafe helps people recognize risks faster and take smarter actions. The company uses behavioral science and learning psychology to make cybersecurity training simple, engaging, and effective.
The Australian market has seen a significant increase in cyberattacks, with large businesses continuing to be impacted. On average, an Australian business self-reports a cybercrime costing AUD63,600. The Australian Signals Directorate's Annual Cyber Threat Report revealed that one cybercrime was reported every six minutes on average in FY24.
SoSafe's expansion into Australia is a significant milestone for the company. The company already works with global businesses with operations in Australia and is committed to providing a powerful solution for Australian businesses that engages employees and strengthens cybersecurity at every level.
Jacqueline Jayne emphasizes the need for a shift in behavior and a culture of security awareness to combat cyber threats. She believes that by focusing on the human element of cybersecurity, SoSafe can help businesses create a culture where safe behaviors become second nature, ultimately reducing the number of cyber threats.
SoSafe currently has offices in Cologne, Amsterdam, Berlin, Chemnitz, Dublin, London, Paris, Lisbon, Munich, and Sydney. With the launch in Australia, the company is poised to make a significant impact in the Australian market and help businesses strengthen their cybersecurity programs.
