As we begin 2015, I encourage you to spend a few minutes thinking about how you can make yourself and AES more cyber-safe in the New Year. Looking back at 2014, numerous multinational companies were targets of significant data breaches from retail stores to a major film studio. For each of these events, the costs are in the hundreds of millions of dollars along with reputational damage. As cyber threats continue to become more sophisticated and complex in 2015, you can help keep AES and your information secure by adhering to the following guidance.
