Presenter: Chris Schreiber
Room: Crater Lake South, EMU 145, Level 1
Presentation: Embracing Cyber Resilience: Beyond Castles and Moats 
Time: 02:45p – 03:15p    

In the face of today’s sophisticated cyber threats, the traditional castle-and-moat model of security is outdated. Modern cybersecurity demands a strategy that evolves with technological advancements and focuses on user needs.

Incorporating the resilience principles of Prevention, Mitigation, and Sustainability into the NIST Cybersecurity Framework empowers organizations to strengthen their defenses while improving the user experience. Communicating the concept of cyber resilience to stakeholders and aligning security measures with the organization’s overarching goals are crucial.

In this session, Chris will trace the evolution of security strategies from static defense-in-depth to a fluid and responsive model of cyber resilience. Participants will gain insights to develop strategies that ensure seamless user access and robust protection of critical assets against an evolving threat landscape.
