This October, as we mark Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we’re focusing on the one variable no firewall can fully control, the human factor. Technology can block millions of threats, but it only takes one untrained click to open the door. 95% of cyber breaches still stem from human error, and phishing attacks are up 180% since 2023. Attackers don’t wait for awareness campaigns. They count on inattention. That’s why at CybergymIEC, we train people the way attackers operate: in real environments, under real pressure, facing real threats. Because your strongest defense isn’t software, it’s people who’ve already faced the threat and know how to stop it. Learn more at www.cybergymiec.com

What does real OT cyber training look like? Not generic security exercises but scenarios engineered around your operational environment. In our podcast, Daniel Shemesh, Red Team Lead at CybergymIEC, walks through how we designed attack simulations for a major European port, an arena tailored to the systems, workflows, and risks that mattered most to that client. It is training that mirrors how adversaries would actually strike, so teams can practice defending where failure is not just digital but physical.

This week, the cybersecurity agencies of the Five Eyes countries, together with Germany and the Netherlands, published coordinated guidelines for securing Operational Technology (OT). The message is clear: when it comes to critical infrastructure, the stakes are higher than digital disruption, they are physical, immediate, and national in scale. The guidelines emphasize: - Complete mapping of OT components and dependencies - OT-specific security management programs - Risk-based asset classification and decision-making - Supply chain and third-party security controls At CybergymIEC, this is exactly why our training arenas exist. Our arenas simulate exactly these environments, ports, power grids, water systems, and manufacturing lines, where an attack is not theoretical but can halt daily life. When the world’s top cyber authorities call for unified standards, organizations need more than policies, they need practice, and that is where hands-on training makes the difference. We make sure your teams are prepared for the threats that keep the lights on, the water flowing, and production lines moving.

The threats facing a maritime port are nothing like those targeting a power grid. And neither looks like the risks of a bank or a retail chain. That’s why generic security drills don’t prepare your teams for real incidents. In our latest podcast, Daniel Shemesh, Red Team Lead at CybergymIEC, explains how we built custom attack scenarios for a major port in Portugal. Within strict regulatory limits, our experts researched and simulated attacks against the actual OT systems the port depends on. The result: training that mirrored the way real attackers move through real operational environments, not a classroom exercise. - No IT-focused drills. - No “copy-paste” simulations. - Only live-fire scenarios designed for your systems, your processes, and your risks. 🎧 Hear Daniel’s story and see why survival depends on realistic OT training:  https://hubs.la/Q03KXQ1z0

We recently welcomed students from Transelectrica to our Cyber Arena in Romania, where cyber threats are not theoretical, they are recreated exactly as they unfold in the real world. It was a chance to show the next generation of cybersecurity professionals what defending critical infrastructure truly looks like, and why learning in a real-world environment makes all the difference. We believe the future of cybersecurity starts in classrooms, labs, and training arenas like ours. That’s why we encourage students everywhere to ask questions and take part in real-world learning experiences that prepare them for the challenges ahead.

When luxury brands make headlines for data breaches, it’s a reminder that no industry is out of reach for cyber attackers. Chanel is the latest name added to a growing list of global companies impacted by Salesforce credential-based attacks. But this isn’t just about fashion or CRM platforms. It’s about how attackers exploit human behavior to bypass even the most secure systems. Voice phishing, malicious app approvals, social engineering, these are not new tricks, but they’re being deployed with precision against organizations of every kind. At CybergymIEC, we prepare organizations for exactly this: the moments when trust, pressure, and split-second decisions can open the door to real damage. Whether it’s a multinational brand or a critical infrastructure provider, one weak link can compromise the entire chain. That’s why we train teams to think and respond like attackers.  Want to understand what happened with Chanel and how to keep your organization ready? 🔗 Read the full article >> https://lnkd.in/gCRNzu33
