Managing Cyber Risks in Turbulent Times

Managing cyber risks in today’s digital environment was already challenging enough, but now we are amidst a once-in-a-century event which is straining our ability to keep systems and data secure. Individuals with malicious intent are taking advantage of the current chaos to launch attacks and break down defenses already weakened by a myriad of impacts. These impacts include a reduction in available security staff; end point devices originally designed to operate inside a controlled environment are now operating outside of that protective environment; security initiatives are being deferred; and increased phishing attacks are preying on employee fears and lack of security awareness. Security and control professionals are doing their best to cope under adverse circumstances. They realize, however, that hitting the pause button on security initiatives and technical audits could lead to catastrophic security breaches jeopardizing critical business processes.
