From Compliance to Resiliency: The Evolution of InfoSec, Part 1 – Tim Callahan – SCW #84
Because only maintaining compliance is not enough to protect your business from the ever-evolving threat landscape, in this session, we will consider the intersection and codependence of compliance with security, maturity, defensibility and resiliency. An effective and maturing program must also align to a Control Framework so that you can measure its effectiveness and ensure appropriate decisions are made that enable business requirements and protect the security, integrity, and availability of information and technology. All of this must happen through the lens of defensibility which is an essential consideration when making risk decisions. And finally, we will look at what makes a business cyber-resilient. The cyber-strong resilient company has the ability to quickly adapt to disruptions while maintaining continuous business operations, and safeguarding people, assets, and overall brand equity.
