254: Psychology of the Hacked | Niall Mackey from Topsec Cloud Solutions

Niall Mackey, the Commercial Director at Topsec Cloud Solutions, joins the show this week as we take an inside look at how businesses cope in the aftermath of a hack.  

Niall is a tech industry veteran with over 35 years of experience with Topsec, Nokia, Interoute (now GTT) and Bank of America.  With Topsec, Niall looks at commercial opportunities and influences the direction of service development to ensure they continue to bring value to their customers.  Topsec have been pioneering cloud-based email and web security for more than two decades, servicing the government, healthcare, engineering, and IT sectors.  

In this episode, Niall sheds some light on the gradually-then-all-at-once impact felt by a business undergoing a cyber attack, from social engineering and phishing to ransomware attacks.  We talk through the psychological impact on those who were keeping watch, how those teams pick up the pieces, and the impact on customer trust
