The reality is, your business has no choice but to operate in this Digital Frontier. There is no turning back. Threats proliferate at alarming rates. Sophisticated attack tools quickly disseminate to anyone with a computer and internet connection. Easily securable endpoints have vanished into the Cloud, mobile devices and a digital supply chain. Even deployed security technologies create new vulnerabilities as a result of fragmented solutions and poor integration. The bottom line: traditional security is no longer sufficient to ensure success! In the Digital Frontier, Resilience must be the goal!
So what does all this mean for businesses today, and are there attainable solutions that will enable businesses to thrive in this Digital Frontier? How is the legal landscape changing, and what protections are provided by the NIST Cybersecurity Framework? This whitepaper focuses on the three Key Risk Indicators of cyber risk that are the focus of effective cyber risk management programs: Business Impact Value, Cyber Threat Level and Cybersecurity Level. When viewed together, these three KRIs create a cyber risk profile that enables business leaders to determine when they have enough cybersecurity to be successful in the Digital Frontier!
