What is Cyber Resilience?
Cyber resilience is the term used to describe the quality of IT infrastructure that is pliable and robust enough to withstand changes and modifications and can rapidly return to a stable state. These changes and modifications can include a cyberattack, the onboarding of new employees, adding new endpoints or workloads to the network, hardware failures, or a merger or acquisition – in short, any activity that changes and “disturbs” the status quo. In some cases, a cyber resilient infrastructure can withstand a disturbance and quickly return to its normal or static state. In other cases, the infrastructure may withstand a disturbance and, as a result, create a new, dynamic state. Any disturbance introduces an opportunity for cybercriminals to attack your systems and data.
