Managing Cyber Risk in an Evolving Threat Landscape

 

Abstract: Cyber attacks are among the most severe and likely risks facing business leaders in advanced economies, according to the latest Global Risk Report, published by the World Economic Forum with support from Marsh & McLennan. Further heightening this cyber risk for businesses, the world subsequently experienced an unprecedented level of societal, economic, and geopolitical upheaval brought on, in part, by the COVID-19 public health crisis. Governments, societies and companies increasingly rely on technology to manage everything from public services to automated business processes, including operational technology. Converging technological platforms are creating a more complex cyber threat landscape and a growing number of critical failure points. As society continues to migrate into the digital world, the threat of cybercrime looms large, routinely costing organizations tens—even hundreds—of millions of dollars. The costs are not just financial: critical infrastructure, societal cohesion and mental well-being are also in jeopardy. The concept of “technological social responsibility” — the recognition and acknowledgment by each organization of its cyber security obligations within the supply chain — is now on the agenda for many industry leaders. Let’s discuss the state of the cyber threat landscape and what organizations can do to understand, measure and manage their cyber risk.
