Protect Data is the essential resource of our global economy. But unlike protecting a physical resource, such as currency or diamonds, data requires a far more comprehensive protection plan than simply hiding it from would-be thieves. While it’s important to defend against unauthorized access to your data, it’s just as critical that your data be preserved if a breach occurs. Unlike gold or other tangible valuables, your data provides value to your organization even after a breach. Gold or jewels, once stolen, often are gone. After a cyber event occurs, your data can remain accessible, its value to your organization intact, and your organization’s reputation preserved — but only if your cyber security strategy includes a comprehensive approach to security, data protection, and recovery: a cyber resilience approach. Cyber resilience is the ability to maintain business continuity despite cyberattacks. It encompasses the real-world view that, despite your best efforts, breaches may occur. And when that happens, your organization must be able to quickly recover lost or compromised data, restore system functionality and resume business activities.
