In the past month, the University of Cyprus, the Land Registry
and the Open University of Cyprus have all fallen victim to cyber
hacking. In the wake of this, the Cyprus Mail has published the
above article which was authored by Michael Ioannou. Michael is the Chief
Information Officer at Elias Neocleous & Co LLC and also the
Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer of Boltonshield

threats and explains why Cybersecurity is not just about
implementing firewalls or antivirus software. He then proceeds to
set out the fundamental requirements for a secure and robust
infrastructure that can withstand cybersecurity attacks.
