Security

A few days after my MBA graduation my email account was hacked. I lost my digital identity in a moment of my life when this email account meant a lot to me and my family. From that moment, I promised myself that this won’t happen again to me and to the people I care about. Now I work at Cisco as Security Marketing Manager for South Europe. My job is to make relevant and clear the importance of cybersecurity in our day-to-day life and in our job.

The time indeed taught me that cyberattacks or malwares are like bad things that happen in your life: you can prepare yourself, but you cannot avoid or control them. What you can do is decide now what to do when one day they will happen.
