Too much or not enough? Navigating the tension between cyber security and growth
- Startups operate on a delicate balance of scaling and securing a market share, while also protecting themselves from cyber threats. Balancing cybersecurity with growth has become a hot topic in the Australian start-up scene and will be discussed at Unicorn Day on October 24th. Cloud experts from the security firm Plerion will lead a session on navigating cybersecurity concerns without sacrificing growth, which will include advice on what start-ups should be doing to protect themselves. One of the common mistakes start-ups make is overburdening their teams with unnecessary security measures, which can stifle growth rather than ignite it. Plerion helps start-ups identify the risks that matter and keep their focus on what is most important.
- Plerion's security platform simplifies cybersecurity for start-ups, keeping them on track while protecting what’s most important. Rather than overwhelming start-ups with detailed audits or checklists, Plerion takes a streamlined, data-driven approach focusing on the urgent issues which could cause harm if left unchecked. For 2025 and beyond, Plerion's Daniel Grzelak advises start-up leaders to focus on the basics, such as multi-factor authentication, and not be distracted by emerging risks or advanced security systems. Instead, he suggests layering advanced measures in as the business evolves, but without hindering agility or business growth.
- Unicorn Day, hosted by Startup Daily and AWS Startups and sponsored by Plerion, will provide start-ups with practical advice and strategies for cloud security and growth. The event will also encourage Australian start-ups to focus on scalable solutions that prioritize cybersecurity without stunting business growth potential.
