Resilience is now at the core of cybersecurity. But can security professionals build true resilience?
For too long, cybersecurity has been reactive, driven by events. But resilience means taking a proactive approach to risk, and building systems that can withstand incidents and attacks.
According to this week’s guest, we have reached a tipping point in boards’ understanding of cyber risk.
Ameet Jugnauth is president of ISACA’s London Chapter, and we spoke to him at the organisation’s recent conference.
The event’s theme was “engineering resilience”. Cyber resilience depends not just on technology, but tactics and people. People, in turn, need skills and training, and they need a supportive community.
And it is often that community that allows cyber professionals, and the organisations they work for, to keep going and mount an effective response when an incident does happen.
