We are in the era of dynamic computing – and while that gives way to innovation, it also escalates the risks every business faces. Computing no longer occurs solely within the perimeter, and cybersecurity threats are increasingly more sophisticated. In fact, organizations today operate in a climate where entire systems can be taken offline in just a few short hours – and leaders need to be prepared for recovery from an interruption to the networks, systems, or data that underpin their business. With the advent and proliferation of new technologies, there is more pressure than ever to secure organizations’ computing. Ultimately, the evolution of computing has forced businesses into a paradox of innovation and risk. They must balance technology with security and business resilience, which requires a new way of thinking.
Conduct a thorough assessment of risk areas to understand the barriers across your IT estate.
Assess your organization’s dynamic computing initiatives and design security measures from the outset of implementation to ensure compliance and mitigate future risks.
Allocate resources strategically to align cybersecurity initiatives with business objectives across silos.
Forge partnerships with external collaborators to augment your organization’s security expertise.
