You can hear from the BDO South Africa and Egress teams at 14:00 SAST on August 4, 2022, as we unpack the human factor in cyber risk, the ways your organization could be vulnerable, and countermeasures to help you maintain a sound cyber security posture and achieve cyber resilience.”
Egress’ mission is to eliminate the most complex cybersecurity challenge every organization faces: insider risk. The company understands that people get hacked, make mistakes, and break the rules. To prevent these human-activated breaches, it has built the only Human Layer Security platform that defends against inbound and outbound threats. Using patented contextual machine learning it detects and prevents abnormal human behavior such as misdirected emails, data exfiltration, and targeted spear-phishing attacks. Used by the world’s biggest brands, Egress is private equity backed and has offices in London, New York, and Boston.
Commenting on the announcement, Daniel Hoy, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Egress, told IT Web that, “We are delighted to welcome such a well-respected and recognised brand as BDO Advisory Services SA into our Partner Programme. Their reputation as a leading provider of specialist consultancy and cyber security services aligns very closely with our mission to deliver customers the highest levels of service and protection. As we continue to expand globally, the partnership with BDO enables us to offer extended coverage across South Africa.”
BDO South Africa provides solutions that are practical and workable, and not overcomplicated by unnecessary process. The company’s client service teams comprises of accounting and business advisers who not only understand the domestic market, but who also have access to a global network in 162 countries that can deliver a seamless and reliable level of service. As a leading mid-size professional services firm in South Africa and part of the global BDO organisation – the company is capable of competing with the larger firms but are still small enough to care.
