Cyber resiliency measures (i.e., architectural design, technologies, operational practices) assume that today’s threat actors can achieve a foothold in an organization’s infrastructure and in turn post-exploit activities must be contained and eliminated.

Most organizations have a complex security infrastructure that consists of multiple products from multiple vendors to create layers of defense.

Today’s economic climate exacerbates risks of insider threats, as pending furloughs or pay cuts may tempt employees to exfiltrate data to secure a new job, make up for income losses, etc.

Organizations should regularly put security products, processes and people to the test, and the reward is better, more efficient protection against attacks.
