The sensation of paranoia --- My company handles highly sensitive and economically critical COVID data, and APT groups are our main source of concern in terms of cybersecurity. We try to remain discreet and out of the public eye, as this discretion is also a layer of security, but we can't rely exclusively on that. Because of this, during our day-to-day operations and when we are making decisions cybersecurity can become a sort of "paranoia-esque" element. We haven't faced any cybersecurity conflicts, and we are out of the public eye, but there's a constant lingering sentiment that it can happen at any moment despite our best efforts. This makes it very hard to properly quantify risks.
