Preparation is better than cure.
Why cyber resilience is the path to faster recovery.
In partnership with 
When it comes to business disasters, cybersecurity failure is ranked by the World Economic Forum as one of the top ten risks in terms of likelihood of occurrence. Which makes cyber resilience and recovery a board-level priority, not a box-ticking exercise.
We believe that preparation is better than cure. That toughening up your cyber defences and mitigating risk before disaster strikes gives you a significant advantage regarding your ability to recover and restore your systems afterwards.
Cyber resilience vs cyber security
While you may have heard the term cyber resilience bandied around – what does it mean? And how does it differ from cybersecurity?
Cybersecurity is the ‘how’ of protecting your electronic data. It encompasses the processes, best business practices and technology solutions that you put in place to safeguard your systems and network.
Whereas cyber resiliency and recovery is your ability to prepare for, respond to, and recover from a cyberattack.
If you’re cyber resilient, you’ll be equipped to better defend your organisation from attack, limit the impact on your systems and data, and keep on working during and after an attack.
Why is cyber resilience so hot right now?
Due to the sheer number and sophistication of daily cyber-attacks, cyber resilience and cyber recovery are now bigger challenges and higher priorities for your organisation than ever before.
Not only has the opportunity for PR and brand damage and the potential loss of revenue and your customers multiplied significantly over the last few years, but you’re under the pump to comply with strict legal, regulatory, and contractual cyber security and resilience obligations. Or face substantial penalties.
Know your cyber risks
According to Veeam’s recently released independent research projects, the 2022 Data Protection Trends Report, and the 2022 Ransomware Trends Report, few – if any – organisations are exempt from attack. And ransomware, which blocks you from accessing your own systems and data, is one of the most active forms of cyber-attack.
Veeam reports that 94% of attacks currently target backup repositories, and 80% of successful ransomware attacks targeted specific production platforms or application types. Many organisations struggle to recover from an attack with the average recovery journey taking a daunting 18 days to complete.
