Today’s businesses face greater cyber risks and threats than ever before. One in six firms attacked in the past year have had their survival threatened as the spate of cyberattacks continues to increase, unabated. That justifies how essential cyber resilience is for business continuity. And amid all these trends, we must ensure that our organizations remain designed for the future — i.e. flexible, efficient and resilient against attacks to preserve business operations.
Business continuity is a major driver of the future of business operations. According to SHRM COVID-19 research, 83% of employers have made business adjustments due to COVID-19. The problem, however, is that many companies still don't know what they should be prioritizing. Should we be focused on preventing cyberattacks or protecting our assets during a crisis? The stakes are high.
