The Necessity of Cyber Crisis Preparedness
Organizations face an imminent threat of cyber incidents, making it essential to establish cyber crisis communication plans proactively rather than waiting for an attack. Cybersecurity is now viewed as a strategic priority, rather than solely a technical issue, necessitating involvement from senior leadership to address vulnerabilities effectively.
