The discussion on cybersecurity has shifted as CIOs and CTOs come to the realization that no system is immune to attacks and breaches. The conversation is now about “cyber resiliency.”
“How, in the midst of degradation and penetration, can we still have confidence in the systems?” Adm. Michael Rogers, NSA director and commander of U.S. Cyber Command, asked at the Billington Cybersecurity Summit in Washington. “Most organizations have tended to put their resources and focus on stopping people from penetrating their systems. I tell organizations that we have got to not only focus on stopping people… but how are you going to operate and remediate at the same time. That’s resiliency.”
