Simply put, cyber resilience is a measure of how well an organization can operate its business during a data breach or cyber attack. Security teams have measures in place to detect and stop attacks, and they have recovery plans for the inevitable breach, but can they, along with IT, keep critical business processes such as order fulfillment, customer service, or accounting operating during a crisis?
Not everyone has to be a security pro, but those in development or in other technical roles must understand security’s importance to the larger organization. If they don’t do their part to safeguard operations, breaches and attacks can demobilize an entire business.
