Cyber resilience is the ability of an organization to understand cyber threats, manage known risks, implement proportionate protections, and recover quickly from attacks. As critical infrastructure becomes more networked, attacks could seriously impact society. Infrastructure like utilities and transportation systems face threats from organized crime and state-sponsored attacks. The future of cybersecurity is uncertain as technology rapidly advances, but issues like converged networks, new technologies, easier attacks, mobile devices, and quantum computing will impact security.

Cyber resilience Cyber resilience is the ability of an organisation to understand the cyber threats it’s facing, to inform the known risks, put in place proportionate protection, and to recover quickly from attack. Cyber attacks As the nation’s critical national infrastructure becomes increasingly networked the impact of an attack on society becomes far more serious. Infrastructure including utilities, power networks, public transport, nuclear power plants and defence facilities all face attack.
