Synopsis

With increasing cyber risks across industries, taking a cyber resilience approach is critical to being able to defend against and manage cyber threats. Effective cyber resiliency implementation within any organisation should bring together preventive, detective, and response controls to safeguard its digital infrastructure and critical assets.

This presentation delves into:

  1. Critical aspects of cyber resiliency testing;
  2. Strategies to uncover and mitigate hidden failures that pose significant risks; and
  3. Three case studies

Importance of cyber resiliency testing

While traditional cybersecurity measures focus on preventing breaches, resiliency testing assesses the ability to maintain essential functions, reduce impact and protect critical assets during and after an attack. This proactive approach is crucial in identifying vulnerabilities and control gaps that conventional security tests might overlook.
