The Modern Threat Landscape

Increasing Likelihood of Attack

New technologies and added devices are continually expanding the attack surface, while adversaries are simultaneously becoming more skilled and motivated. Encountering a security threat is inevitable – that's why it’s important to proactively mitigate risk.
Meeting Growing Demand for Readiness

Regulators, cyber insurers and partners are placing increasing focus on risk mitigation. Adequate risk management requires regular exercises and ongoing demonstration of a sufficient level of organizational preparedness.
Build Cyber Resilience

Incident preparation is an ongoing process. It requires strong planning, but it doesn’t end there, the IR plan needs continual improvement driven by an understanding of your organization’s objectives and the latest threats facing your organization.

Practicing for the Inevitable: Exercises

True cybersecurity preparedness means developing a plan, regularly exercising those plans, and continually improving them. Tabletop exercises, for example, offer a low-impact mechanism that ensures team readiness, identifies pitfalls and creates heightened awareness across the organization. These exercises serve to engage key stakeholders before real incidents ever occur. Secureworks tabletop exercises:
