Strengthening the core pillars of cyber-resiliency
s we enter a new era of cybersecurity
A threats, which has prompted the evolution of new vulnerabilities, organisations are challenged on how to best respond to these evolving attacks. The threat landscape is more complex than ever causing organisations to grapple with new tactics to safeguard their critical data.
In 2024, ransomware surged rapidly in acceleration and sophistication, accounting for 23 % of all intrusions in 2023 compared with 18 % in 2022 according to Mandiant’ s annual M-Trends report. Since the introduction of AI, the ability to automate its deployment can also be attributed to its exponential growth. Most notably, increasing its attack surface to target critical infrastructure, sensitive data and operational capabilities.
To navigate these challenges, organisations must adopt a comprehensive approach to cyber-resilience – one that allows them not only to withstand attacks but also to recover swiftly and effectively. The longer a cyberthreat remains undetected, the more time it can inflict damage which is known as the dwell time. Therefore, minimising the dwell time can significantly reduce costs and damage to business operations, maintaining Business Continuity and customer services.
The core pillars of cyber-resilience provide a robust framework for organisations looking to enhance their cybersecurity posture.
