BELRON

“ It is very caring , very diverse and very inclusive . It ’ s a team where it doesn ' t matter what country you ' re in , where you ' re from , or what role you ' re in , because everybody cares about the success of everyone else ”

ANTHONY FOUST GLOBAL CHIEF INFORMATION SECURITY OFFICER , BELRON
big help for us in reducing that noise in our system and allowing our team to really focus in on signal events – things that really do require a little bit more in-depth analysis , research and investigation to determine if we have a bigger problem ,” Foust explains .
As Belron is still in the early stages of this journey , there are a number of technologies Foust and his team are keen to implement . It ’ s crucial that the implementation of these occurs in a timely fashion to guarantee a robust grace period , where various functions are tested and analysed to ensure they work to the best of their ability .
“ AI and machine learning ( ML ) technologies are going to be critical for cybersecurity in the future . Today , we use AI a lot for helping us detect vulnerabilities and in determining those vulnerabilities that have a real potential for the exposure to a real risk event . Email is another component in helping us through AI technologies , identifying and sorting out the truly malicious emails from those that are legitimate . That ' s a really critical element for us today ,” comments Foust .
“ In our future technologies , as we ' re continuing to grow beyond some of the core elements that we ' ve implemented in the last two years , much will be automated or enabled by AI – especially in the areas of anomaly detection .”
The introduction of these new technologies and capabilities really boils down to the company ’ s dedication to its customers and employees alike , which is an integral aspect of the business and its driving ethos .
“ We want to make sure that when customers give us data , they know we are going to treat that data as one of our most valuable assets and protect it ; that we ' re only going to keep it as long
