BCI World Hybrid 2024, scheduled for October 30-31, is the Business Continuity Institute's annual global conference that brings together resilience professionals from around the world. This two-day event, held both in-person in London and virtually, offers a comprehensive program of keynotes, breakout sessions, and a vendor exhibition focused on building resilience for future challenges.
Cyber Resilience Case Study
Cyber resilience case studies provide valuable insights into real-world cybersecurity challenges and solutions. One notable example involves a retailer that faced a significant cyber attack, highlighting the importance of implementing robust cyber resiliency techniques. In another case, HPE partnered with AMD and Zerto to strengthen the cyber resilience of UK public sector organizations, focusing on safeguarding critical services and ensuring rapid recovery from disruptions. These studies demonstrate the effectiveness of proactive measures, advanced security solutions, and scalable recovery strategies in mitigating cyber threats and minimizing their impact on operations.
Key takeaways from cyber resilience case studies include:
- The importance of visibility into applications and data assets
- The value of automation, AI, and machine learning in cybersecurity
- The need for secure cloud migration strategies
- The critical role of incident response plans and regular testing
- The benefits of adopting a zero trust security approach
