1. Sharing information is critical.

2. Encrypting data should not be overlooked.

3. Educating employees is not a nice-to-have. People are part of the problem and the solution when it comes to cybersecurity. Xerox CISO Alissa Johnson visits employees who fall for internally conducted spearphishing tests. In addition, she drills the company’s CEO, leadership team, and the board.

4. Holding manufacturers responsible will effect change. Makers of devices need to be held more accountable for the security integrity of their products.

5. Having a healthy respect for paranoia can keep you on your toes–and your organization secure.
