Cyber Security insights

Maintaining cyber vigilance and staying resilient

Cyber resilience is vital to maintain business operational capabilities, safeguard customer trust, and reduce the impact of future attacks. Regulators worldwide are also increasingly focused on cyber resilience, obliging organizations to be more transparent about their ability to respond to breaches before, during and after an incident.

The goal after a breach is not just to get the organization back on its feet but to build it back stronger than before, less vulnerable to future attacks, more secure and more resilient. In this eBook, professionals share hard-won lessons which are intended to help organizations confidently and proactively address cyber threats, recover from cyber incidents — and emerge stronger.

Trusted Technology: The key to ensuring successful transformation

In the face of growing public concern over privacy and trust in digital technology, organizations are putting greater focus on security, with security-by-design seen as vital to transforming with intent.

Our annual technology survey discusses the importance of security in digital transformation and finds that by taking a security-by-design approach businesses can be sufficiently confident to accelerate their digital transformation efforts, reduce the risk of security breaches and protect the interests of their customers and business partners.

Cybersecurity and privacy concerns ranked highly in our survey, with 40 percent of companies saying that enhancing security has become a key goal in their XaaS projects. Seventy-one percent of businesses say they have to become more proactive at integrating trust, security, privacy and resilience into technology rollouts. And more than half (51 percent) of cybersecurity teams are focusing on how to automate, streamline and embed security into the core of the business. The adoption of new technologies, along with greater connectivity and dependence on digital services, open up new attack surfaces and new routes for exploitation of systems. Wise organizations invest to manage these risks as an integral part of their transformation program.

Proactively managing security risks has other advantages, including improving the success rates of transformation projects, building trusted relationships with a wide range of stakeholders including customers, clients and an increasingly complex and interdependent ecosystem of suppliers. All of which increases confidence in the organization’s digital future. Our survey shows that security is being recognized as a key commercial imperative. Businesses that perform strongly on security will secure long term competitive advantage: 63 percent of the organizations say that improving cybersecurity and privacy helps them to provide a loyalty-winning customer experience.

The challenge for companies is to enhance resilience and trust without making security a hindrance and an overhead.

Security done right can help streamline customer interactions, make it easy for employees to do the right thing, and ultimately protect the organization and the data it holds in trust for others.

Business protection

The smartest businesses don’t just manage risk, they use it as a source of accelerated growth and market edge. Insight-driven risk optimization is a value generator because it helps the future-focused organization to do what it wants to do, quickly and safely.

A well protected enterprise is not just a safe pair of hands, but has the potential to be the most confident and disruptive innovator on the block.

Maintaining cyber vigilance and staying resilient

The rules of engagement in cybersecurity are constantly shifting. Criminal gangs and nation-states are using new technologies, including AI, to exploit new attack routes while still using old, reliable solutions. While prevention remains a high priority, many leaders acknowledge that cyberattacks will succeed despite the best defenses. Rapid detection, response and recovery matter more than ever to help limit damage and rebuild effectively to increase resilience. Cyber resilience is vital to maintain business operational capabilities, safeguard customer trust, and reduce the impact of future attacks. Regulators worldwide are also increasingly focused on cyber resilience, obliging organizations to be more transparent about their ability to respond to breaches before, during and after an incident. The goal after a breach is not just to get the organization back on its feet but to build it back stronger than before, less vulnerable to future attacks, more secure and more resilient.
