Collaborative approach
One such collaborative Carrier cybersecurity initiative, its project around enterprise phishing defense, which centers around people, tools, and “the hunt,” has garnered industry recognition, including a 2024 CSO Award, honoring security projects that demonstrate outstanding thought leadership and business value.
Since being launched in April 2021, the program has been instrumental in reporting more than 77,000 advanced threats that have bypassed security tools, according to Dennis Legori, associate director of security awareness and digital communications at Carrier.

The people aspect of the project refers to the Carrier Enterprise Defender’s global network, a community of volunteers who discuss suspicious activities, share best practices from adaptive training, and receive real-time support from the security operations team. “This collaborative environment empowers users to become active participants in cyber defense, fostering a sense of shared responsibility,” Legori says.
