Cyber Resilience

With cyber incidents and security breaches on the rise, it has become more likely that an attack can penetrate an organization. Organizations still rely on outdated security technology and do not change their mindset to protect against threats. Business leaders need to change their traditional approach to manage vulnerabilities and introduce new security methods. It is vital that organizations know that their valuable information, processes, technology and people are secure and how they have to respond and recover from an incident. In today’s world, resilience has become a strategic imperative for an organization for further existence and is no longer an one-off exercise. Resilience demands for long-term measures in order to be achieved and maintained and requires the adoption of new skills, habits and practices.

Our solution

For an organization to become resilient to attacks, it calls for a shift in mindset that changes how risks and potential impacts are perceived. Organizations need to broaden the scope of involvement at the top of the organization and start focusing on business risk, not just technology and security controls. This also involves the ability to reprioritize and refocus tasks and actions to mitigate the impact of a disruption. Resilience in organizations aims to improve the ability to anticipate, prepare for, respond and adapt to incidents, thereby limiting and mitigating damage. Deloitte’s Cyber Resilience team essentially brings Red Teaming, Continuity Management, Incident Response and Cyber Forensics together to improve and strengthen organizational resilience.
