Experts call economic and human investment compared to … – Yahoo Finance Spain

Madrid, Mar 18 (EFE) .- Spanish cybersecurity researchers claim the government a new policy to address crimes committed in the network with economic investment and human and which does not obviate the development of tools against cyber attacks represents a great opportunity for global business.

“The worst enemy is considered safe,” lead researcher stressed Security Defense and Real Instituto Elcano, Félix Arteaga, in the presentation of “Cyber ​​Elcano”, the first monthly report that this body does cybersecurity.

Arteaga has claimed a strategy or “own public space” led by Governments and taking into account the role of all stakeholders, from the State itself to businesses and citizens, who must be aware of the risks and that everyone has to take their own protection mechanisms.

France, UK and USA, among other countries, have already implemented policies themselves with a major investment. For the Gallic country, the Government has approved a plan of 1,000 million euros only for one year, while the British go in five years 860 million pounds.

The analyst Elcano makes clear “You can do more with the usual” nor may still have the same vision about the problem. You have to define a risk assessment, a task in which the private sector can play an important role, because it has “means and knowledge.”

In fact, according Adolfo Hernandez, one of the analysts drivers report “Elcano”, the turnover of companies engaged the services of cybersecurity is about 120,000 million dollars a year.

Hernández not forget that 3,000 million people worldwide are connected, representing 40 percent of the population, and later this year there will be 5,000 million devices processing and exchanging information permanently.

A flow in which, although it is difficult to quantify the activities criminal, about 70 percent refer to cybercrime against cyberterrorism.

On this threat and their use as DAESH terrorist organizations or self-proclaimed Islamic State of internet and social networking, both experts have stressed the leap.

“The jihadists have gone to hide in the mountains to be very present in reality ‘on line’,” Arteaga said, warning that this presence will increase, because the more democratic New technologies will also impregnated radicalism online
