The cyber risk you can’t see

What if the biggest cyber risk in your network is the one you can’t see? Mission-critical communications are no longer isolated. LMR is increasingly connected with LTE, 5G, cloud services, satellite connectivity, IT systems and connected devices. That creates new capabilities - but also new points of vulnerability. So what happens when you can no longer see everything connected to your network? In this episode of Making Waves, co-hosts Stuart Will and Lone Hansen sit down with Chris Carter, Chairman and CEO of Approyo, to connect enterprise cybersecurity thinking with the realities of mission-critical communications. In this conversation, we explore: • The visibility gap: Why organisations may not have a security problem, but a visibility problem. • Zero Trust in action: What “never trust, always verify” means in mission-critical networks. • The convergence challenge: What happens when LMR connects with LTE, 5G and satellite. • Cyber sovereignty and resilience: How cloud, geopolitics and multi-vendor environments change the security equation. • What end users can do: Practical steps for public safety and critical infrastructure organisations. Can you truly protect what you can’t see?
