Data protection day
On the occasion of International Data Protection Day, Sky Express, a regional leader in information security, reminds the importance of protecting personal data and maintaining secure behavior in the digital environment.
Given the ubiquity of the internet in daily life, more and more user data is becoming accessible and susceptible to abuse. Every online interaction, whether on social media, online shopping, or simple internet browsing, carries the risk of compromising privacy.
With the constant growth in the use of smart devices, applications, and online services, cyber-attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. According to the Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2025 publication (World Economic Forum), CEOs and Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) answered that the cyber risk they are most concerned about is ransomware attacks. The study also highlights concerns about AI tools that are changing the landscape of cybercrime, enabling criminals to improve their methods, automate, and personalize techniques. When asked: “Which AI-related cybersecurity issues concern you the most?”, 47% of respondents mentioned phishing, malware development, and deepfakes.
As cybersecurity experts, we advise that in addition to using appropriate technologies to protect information systems, users should regularly update their passwords, use two-factor authentication, and be cautious of suspicious emails and links.
Continuous employee education is one of the foundations of secure business operations.
Today, more than ever, education and awareness about cyber threats are crucial for preserving privacy and security on the internet. Cybersecurity education should not be a one-time activity but must be a CONTINUOUS process. As technologies and threats constantly evolve, companies and their employees must stay informed and educated about new data protection methods. Education should be tailored to each user, whether in IT, finance, sales, or any other department, to create a solid framework for changing behaviors towards safer online conduct. This not only reduces the risk of cyberattacks but also enhances business security, directly impacting the overall success of the company.
