\u201cInstead, the events that organisations were most interested in were almost always directly related to uncovering the \u2018land\u2019. These were the events that they feel less resilient to, as they represent a blind spot in the application of risk management. If you have a robust understanding of what the land looks like, you can mature a cyber capability to deal with threats that would attempt live off it. In simple risk terms, if you don\u2019t know the land, you can\u2019t manage what\u2019s in it,\u201d added Kannemeyer.<\/p>\n
In January 2020, the World Economic Forum released guidance designed to help organisations in the aviation sector advance their cyber resilience endeavours.<\/p>\n
The guidance actually transcends aviation and is appropriate to any industry sector and every type of organisation.<\/p>\n
8 questions to help you become cyber resilient<\/strong><\/h3>\nThe World Economic Forum\u2019s initiative poses eight questions that organisations should ask themselves to assess and advance their levels of cyber resilience:<\/p>\n
\n- Does your organisation\u2019s approach to information, cyber, and IT risk management take full consideration of the risks posed by emerging technologies such as IIoT?<\/li>\n
- Does your organisation understand the impact of emerging technologies on its attack surface \u2013 both outside and within the organisational and network perimeter?<\/li>\n
- Does your organisation\u2019s cyber resilience strategy, risk scenarios and incident planning exercises take full account of system and data integrity risks, as well as confidentiality and availability?<\/li>\n
- With ongoing changes in connectivity, technology, and business practices, how do your organisation\u2019s cyber and safety risks interconnect?<\/li>\n
- Does your organisation have a clear understanding of the risk posed by its supply chain and partners across its ecosystem, including manufacturers, support partners, and infrastructure operators?<\/li>\n
- How can your organisation develop and maintain effective baselines of cyber capability?<\/li>\n
- How can your organisation continuously monitor cyber risks?<\/li>\n
- How can your organisation build an industry database that enables minimum standards to be set, and industry-wide leveraging of best practice?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nThese eight questions progress an organisation\u2019s cyber resilience by challenging the three pillars upon which cyber resilience is built.<\/p>\n
The first two questions relate to visibility; how much of your organisation\u2019s critical infrastructure is visible. Can you fully see the extent of risk upon your attack surface?<\/p>\n
The second pillar of resilience is maturity and is tested in the next three questions (3-5). Do you truly have a 360\u00b0 view of risk and how it might manifest, from all of your digital surfaces, including third parties?<\/p>\n
The third pillar of resilience is capability. How rich is your ability to measure, detect, respond and learn, questions of capability are challenged in questions (6-8)?<\/p>\n
The World Economic Forum\u2019s cyber resilience initiative lays down guidance for best practice baselining and measurement of cyber resilience as a continuous and always-improving process via all three of the pillars.<\/p>\n
