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. In this eBook, KPMG professionals share hard-won lessons which are intended to help organizations confidently and proactively address cyber threats, recover from cyber incidents — and emerge stronger.
