Q: As a business owner, I am not confident our organization is secure from a cyber perspective. What can I do to evaluate our current cyber resilience?
Having a clear vision of your organization’s cybersecurity posture is more important than ever as cyber threats continue to propagate across the nation. Unfortunately, many business owners may think they are not a target or even doing all the right things to protect their businesses from cyberattacks or data breaches. The reality is – history has proven that they don’t know what they don’t know.
The first step your organization can take to gain a clear understanding of its current cyber resilience is to have a cybersecurity assessment performed. At its most basic level, a third-party cyber assessment shows how well a company has implemented defenses designed to protect it from a cyberattack, whether that be a breach of data or fraud driven by a cyberattack. These assessments aim to diagnose potential risks before something serious happens and measure how well a company has prepared itself to defend against and recover from such attacks. This can be used as a framework for creating a plan of action and remediating items based on their level of risk to the organization.
