In the aftermath of this major IT event, is there something everyone can take from this? What can we learn from Waikato DHB, and the pain they are still going through as they restore their systems and their services?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For Icon IT, there is one simple answer to this: people click on things they shouldn\u2019t. They always have, and they always will. It\u2019s one thing we highlight during our Phishing Education sessions<\/a>; if there\u2019s one weak link in your organisation\u2019s IT security, it\u2019s people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We aren\u2019t saying all<\/em> people click on things they shouldn\u2019t, but there\u2019s another saying we have that can be highlighted here: it takes just one person to bring an entire organisation down. The ransomware attack on Waikato DHB is proof of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
