Bogdan Pismicenco, Kaspersky: The transition from cybersecurity to cyberimmunity is a process we are currently working on

The transition from cybersecurity to cyberimmunity is a process we are currently working on and to which all large companies should adhere, said Bogdan Pismicenco, Territory Sales Manager – Romania, Bulgaria & Republic of Moldova, Kaspersky. “The concept of cyberimmunity aims to discourage malware attacks, meaning that the cost of an malware attack would be higher than the damage caused by the attack,” he explained.

“All cybersecurity companies have mechanisms in place to help customers overcome malware threats. There are targeted attacks for certain sectors, even certain companies. Companies can protect themselves by applying a new security paradigm. It is very important for companies to have a cybersecurity policy in place, to be prepared for attacks at all times.”
