ESG: Incident Response Strategies in the Spotlight
As cyber attackers develop new means of evading cybersecurity measures, CISOs face the growing challenge of improving incident response readiness. No longer an event-driven program, incident response (IR) has become a foundational element of an organization’s cyber risk management program.
This new emphasis on operationalizing IR readiness demands new strategies and programs. But where should CISOs start?
TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 339 IT and cybersecurity professionals specializing in IR activities. The study sought to assess prominent IR strategies, validate notable dynamics that yield the most (and least) effective activities, and highlight challenges organizations are facing.
The key findings are designed specifically to help CISOs plan for IR readiness, including a detailed review of:
- Cyberattack frequencies and damage.
- Common missteps in response.
- Weaknesses in IR readiness.
- How organizations prioritize IR retainers, readiness activities and KSAs.
- Benefits of engagement and criteria for selecting IR service providers.
