Firms Must Test Cyber Resilience Plans, Policies

In the world of cybersecurity, security defenders have to look far ahead to outpace the speed of business, technology, and cybercrime innovations while also keeping active threats at bay. In a year that has seen the most dramatic changes to business operations in recent memory, maintaining a strong cybersecurity posture is no easy feat.

These changes are mostly driven by a rapid shift to work-from-home models, which are truly testing companies’ tolerance for risk. Businesses of all shapes and sizes are now leaning on technology more heavily than ever before. Unfortunately, many of the security guardrails normally in place have fallen by the wayside in the process — and criminals are waiting in the wings to take advantage.

In fact, times of chaos and uncertainty are when cybercriminals thrive the most — from attempts to trick individuals working under stress into clicking malicious links, to looking for open doors into companies’ networks introduced during the rapid deployment of new tools for remote work and operations.

Today, businesses are facing many of the same challenges that they’ve been addressing for the last decade — just at greater scale and speed. Now is a critical time for organizations to re-evaluate security strategies to ensure they have visibility across their IT infrastructure, understand and prioritise the most critical threats, and have comprehensive plans on how they respond to cyberattacks in a way that works for today’s new normal.
