Overview
Critical systems and applications must remain available as organizations digitally modernize and onboard technologies. Typical failures are supposed to withstand cyber stress and sustain availability-since proper planning, vulnerabilities, attacks, and risk states should be known. Traditional cyber security measures are no longer enough to protect organizations from persistent, high-level attacks. This is where cyber resilience provides advanced protection.
The cybersecurity landscape is changing, inducing more complex security requirements, and adding technologies have shifted protection. Cyber risks are no longer isolated into network boundaries. We are in a critical state where cyber risks activate across every technology platform and require higher protection standards-this is why "Cyber Protection Needs Attention."
Many businesses fail by thinking that structuring a cyber protection program is challenging. They have spent millions of dollars and often face identical risks. What's unknown is that hackers and risks are always active, meaning organizations must become tactical and strategically develop protection. It's similar to developing a puzzle-how and what parts work together. This could require various strategies, technologies, or even specific labor categories. There are easier approaches!
We are waiting for you! This webinar will present advanced information on the importance of cyber protection. The presentation will discuss methodologies such as continuous monitoring, technology and vendor engagements, developing resilience, cyber visibility, and how cyber risks can become a reward. Please don't wait until it's too late to give your cyber protection program attention, so please join this webinar!
Why you should Attend
Cybersecurity is a significant concern for professionals and businesses. With the constant threat of cyber attacks, many are unsure if they can outperform hackers and risks. The patch-and-fix methodology is not solution-centric, and incidents continue to escalate. The question we all face is: who is winning the cyber war? Citizens and businesses alike are shifting blame, raising doubts about whether we can ever truly develop cybersecurity or if we will always fall prey to hackers.
Despite spending millions of dollars on tools, ransomware and breaches have left business owners and citizens wondering how to implement cyber protection and whether we will ever become genuinely cyber-safe. This presentation will remove the mentioned concerns, help facilitate cyber protection as a business model, and remediate issues such as "Hackers" are winning the cyber war. Attendees will also be positioned to understand that cyber protection is a holistic approach requiring a combination of different objectives.
