  • Resilience-based cybersecurity strategies can help businesses mitigate the impact of cyberattacks.

Orange Cyberdefense UK’s Dominic Trott discusses the importance of resilience-based cybersecurity strategies in mitigating the impact of cyber threats on the healthcare sector. As cyber threats continue to evolve and target sensitive data in the healthcare industry, organizations must prioritize cyber resilience principles to ensure business continuity and minimize disruptions. Trott emphasizes the need for a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity, including people, processes, and technologies, as well as third-party risk management. By implementing updated technology and security controls, businesses can better prepare for inevitable cyberattacks and minimize operational damage.

By focusing on cyber resilience, businesses can effectively contain cyber threats, identify their causes, and remediate incidents to return to ‘business as usual’ as quickly as possible. Technical recommendations, such as following standards and frameworks like NIST, can contribute to regulatory compliance and enhance cybersecurity preparedness. The demand for endpoint and network detection and response solutions, as well as data protection and backup, is expected to rise as the number of cyber victims increases, highlighting the importance of resilience-based cyber strategies in today’s digital landscape.
