Proactive & Reactive Security
Securing organizations against cyberattacks is a continuous process as attackers constantly seek new methods. An effective security program combines both proactive and reactive security efforts.
Proactive security helps comply with laws and regulations, protect against known attack vectors and build business continuity and disaster recovery plans for when events occur.
Reactive security deals with events after they have occurred. A mature, proactive security program helps your reactive approach become quicker and more effective when needed.
Effective incident response relies on being prepared. Maintaining a mature cybersecurity program and having a plan of attack for when incidents occur is vital to limiting the damage of ransomware and data exfiltration attempts on your organization.
