Why It’s Critical for You to Implement a Cyber Resilience Framework

Cyber resilience can be an intimidating topic for any business. But the risk of cyber attack is higher than ever, and it is critical for companies to take action to lower their cyber risks or potentially face crippling business disruptions: a third of companies that experienced a ransomware incident reported business disruption of a week or longer. This IDC eBook, sponsored by Carbonite + Webroot, provides an overview of cyber resilience and explains why you should care about it. Seventy-five percent of companies that encountered a highly visible ransomware incident required post-incident steps to assess and, as warranted, improve their company’s data protection and recovery practices. To help organizations get ahead of potential cyberattacks, IDC has developed a six-step cyber resilience framework based on foundational industry principles that outlines the steps that businesses can take to strengthen their cyber resilience. The eBook presents two options companies can follow on their path to cyber resilience: do-it-yourself and/or in partnership with a managed services provider. The eBook also covers details that business leaders, employees assigned cybersecurity oversight and managed services providers should consider as they assess cyber resilience within their organizations or prospects. There is no need to roll the dice and only partially address cybersecurity risks. Turning the framework and insights presented in this eBook into action provides a blueprint to lower your cyber risks and to avoid becoming the next victim.
