The strategy to prepare for and lessen the effects of threats faced by a business. Comparable to risk reduction, risk mitigation takes steps to reduce the negative effects of threats and disasters on business continuity. Threats that might put a business at risk include cyberattacks, weather events and other causes of physical or virtual damage. 

People

People are arguably the biggest risk. By people we mean staff, as well as other individuals an organization may come into contact with – i.e. contractors.

Process

Processes are key to the implementation of an effective cyber security strategy. They are crucial in defining how an organization’s activities, roles and documentation are used to mitigate information risks. Processes also need to be continually reviewed.

Data and Information Protection

Data and information protection is the most technical and tangible of the three pillars. The data we gather comes from multiple sources, such as information technology (IT), operational technology (OT), personal data and operational data. It must be properly managed and protected every step of the way.
