The attack surface for most organizations has grown exponentially in the past few years. The number of attackers and their sophistication has increased while the scenarios and venues to perpetrate an attack evolves daily. How prepared are you to face the challenge? What is your Cybersecurity Maturity Score (hint: it is not the strength of your perimeter defense)?

The challenge to reckon with is whether your environment is resilient and prepared to mitigate, minimize and render most attacks of limited consequence to your business!

The most important aspect of a 7x24 operation is the hand-off between time shifts where the legacy time-shifts exist.
