The sophistication of cybercriminals and the level of impact that breaches have on business continuity have made the implementation of defence-in-depth a necessity. Defence in depth is about being a tougher nut to crack than the criminals are willing to deal with. They tend to seek the easiest route, and if they find that progress against your organisation is slow and costly, it starts to diminish their return on investment, which may prove a sufficient disincentive.<\/p>\n
Security is always best when there are concentric perimeters. It is much harder for a threat actor to breach many walls than just one. So, start building out your own cybersecurity from the core.<\/p>\n
Attack surface management is the core of your cyber defences. This is where you will define and manage your growing attack surface and prepare yourself for any new threat. When considering the management of your attack surface, the following are essential:<\/p>\n
Prevention might not deter the attacker, so, it is better that you are prepared\u00a0 with your detection and response<\/a> strategy to detect threats and respond to them.<\/p>\n Finally, the outer level of your defences should be based on threat-centric risk management to understand your risk environment, reduce risk to business in a cost-effective manner, and embed cyber risk management across all departments and decision-making processes.<\/p>\n To ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of your cyber defence plan, you should consider following a Plan, Do, Check, Act approach for continuous improvement. In other words, you plan a security process, you deploy it, you review the results and then you act upon these findings to improve the system for the next time around.<\/p>\n You can find out more about our cyber security services<\/a> or learn more about how to deter attackers from breaking into your systems and networks by download our whitepaper on minimising the impact of a cyber security breach<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The sophistication of cybercriminals and the level of impact that breaches have on business continuity have made the implementation of defence-in-depth a necessity.
