And welcome to this Meet the Boss event in partnership with IBM.
Cybercrime continues to be a major concern for business. We see headlines about new attacks almost daily. The average cost of an attack to an organization is upward of $4.2 million, and recovery can take days or weeks.
Because it’s no longer a matter of ‘if’ you are breached, but ‘when,’ every organization needs a playbook for what happens AFTER the attack. Organizations need to make sure their data will be available and secure in case of attacks. With updated technology and the right automated processes in place, a cyberattack does not have to mean permanent financial and reputational damage. A well-defined data resilience strategy can turn a breach into a comparatively short-term disturbance.
From the entire team at Meet the Boss and IBM, we look forward to hearing your thoughts and providing you with the right discussions to keep you on course, every course.
Hope to see you in Seattle!
