Cybersecurity for Business Owners: The Costly Mistakes Leaders Keep Making | In The Trenches

Most business owners think cybersecurity is an IT problem. It's not — it's a business problem. And it's costing Australian companies millions. In this episode of In The Trenches, Hanif Ibrahim is joined by Dr. Thomas Dunn, a cybersecurity expert, for a frank conversation about what business leaders consistently get wrong when it comes to protecting their operations, their data, and their clients. This isn't a technical deep-dive for IT teams. This is a strategic conversation for the decision-maker at the top — the person who sets the culture, approves the budget, and ultimately carries the risk. What's covered: - The most common cybersecurity mistakes businesses are making right now - Why your biggest vulnerability is probably human, not technical - How attackers identify and exploit business owners specifically - What a cyber breach actually costs — beyond the ransom - Simple, high-leverage actions business owners can take immediately - How to create a security culture without becoming paranoid The threat landscape has changed dramatically. This conversation will change how you think about risk in your business.
