Digital transformation has accelerated the growth of business, but as digital capabilities expand, opportunities for digital systems to be compromised increase. Recent events have revealed vulnerabilities at even the most advanced organizations, proving that when it comes to cyber attacks, it’s no longer a question of 'if' but 'when'. While the industry is focused heavily on monitoring and detection of cyberthreats, monitoring and detection alone do not prevent compromises or downtime. It’s time to plan for an unexpected attack, putting the tools and automation in place to contain and recover from an attack before it affects your business. Operational resilience is measured from the customer’s experience of your service. What will your customers experience during a cyber attack?

Watch as Tom Weatherford, Strategic Solutions Architect at xMatters, an Everbridge company, discusses:

  • Why operational resilience is more than systems monitoring
  • How to recognize whether teams are ready to solve major cyber events
  • Why cyberthreat containment requires planning
  • Why automation is required for experts to respond to threats rapidly
