Course Description

How do you keep your organization safe from cyber threats? Do you use the latest and greatest antivirus software? Do you ensure firewalls are up and that your files are encrypted? These strategies can be effective in deterring cyber threats. But what happens when a breach persists despite these efforts? To keep your organization resilient, protect its reputation, and comply with regulatory requirements, it’s important to focus on cyber resilience. This goes beyond cybersecurity and highlights adaptability and preparedness, creating backup strategies in case cybersecurity efforts fail. Doing so can help companies maintain positive relationships with stakeholders and mitigate damage as much as possible when a breach occurs.

In this course, we will discuss cybersecurity and cyber resilience, showing how they are connected as well as how they are distinct from one another. We’ll explain why cyber resilience matters and how you can conduct a cyber resilience review. By the end of this course, you’ll have a better understanding of what you can do to keep your organization safe from cyber threats.
