Towards a Cyber Resilience Partnership

At Symantec, we believe Cyber Resilience is about the management--not the elimination--of risk. We recognise that security needs to go beyond systems, software or IT departments. Cyber Resilience puts the power in the hands of people, and arms them with the ability to recognise risks, draw on the collective intelligence of others, and take preventive or corrective action.

We believe Cyber Resilience calls for strategic action. Now. To help achieve this we propose a new strategic partnership between the security function and business leaders, to balance competitive advantage against the inescapable Cyber Risk of today. Our integrated portfolio of solutions helps your people:

  • Become fully-informed on which security issues matter most to their organisation
  • Use this knowledge to keep all their colleagues informed of their responsibilities
  • Gain a competitive advantage against an on-going never-seen-before Cyber Risk

It is time to raise the stakes.

Symantec’s ISTR once again covers a wide-ranging threat landscape, with data collected and analysed by Symantec’s security experts. The report looks at the threat landscape in 2013, which saw a significant rise in the number of breaches an organisation faced. If 2011 was the year of the breach, then 2013 can best be described as the Year of the Mega Breach.
