It starts with our dedicated cybersecurity team which works tirelessly to protect company assets, empower employees with knowledge and build a culture of shared responsibility. Together, we turn vigilance into action and make security part of Panasonic’s everyday culture.
Day In the Life
A typical day for our cybersecurity team is dynamic and collaborative. From reviewing incident reports and conducting risk assessments to supporting audits and training employees ... no day is the same. “It’s a mix of strategic planning and hands-on problem solving with many cross-functional teams,” explains Richard White, Group Manager IT/Security.
“We provide regional governance and advisory in support of our business units. This includes risk assessments, supplier due diligence and contract guidance, all aimed at minimizing risk and strengthening resilience,” says White.
The Biggest Threats
When asked about the most significant cybersecurity threats to employees, Innocent Kabangu Joo Sung, IT Security Analyst, emphasizes, “Human threats like phishing, social engineering and insider risks pose the biggest challenges by increasing the attack surface and potentially leading to data breaches, ransomware or compliance issues.”
