Building a Proactive Security Playbook for Lasting Cyber Resilience

Sam Kirkman
Director of Services, EMEA

We dove deep into an exploration of proactive security. While many security programmes remain reactive, responding to events, alerts, and emerging vulnerabilities as they arise, this approach often leads to burnout, overwhelm, and noise. In today’s landscape, it’s essential to assess and enhance your security posture proactively, before any incidents occur. Our expert discussed: 

• What assets do I possess, and where are my vulnerabilities?
• How can I establish continuous monitoring of my assets and effectively prioritize remediation efforts?
• Is it possible to validate the effectiveness of my security controls?
• Real-world examples of successful proactive security solutions, equipping you with actionable insights to advance your path toward proactive security.
