How can organizations better prepare to deal with cyber crises? This question was at the heart of our October 23 seminar at Polytechnique Montréal.
The exchanges highlighted that cyber resilience goes beyond protection and compliance. It requires organizations to prepare, test their response capabilities, and ensure their teams can act effectively under pressure.
Four key levers emerged:
- People: Foster a culture of trust where incidents can be reported, without fear of blame.
- Training: Educate and train teams to develop the right reflexes and learn from mistakes.
- Customization: Tailor exercises to real-world conditions, from tabletop exercises (TTX) to immersive simulations.
- Collaboration: Strengthen collective resilience by sharing expertise and lessons learned.
A big thank you to our panelists, Benoît Dupont, Kéren Saint-Hilaire, and Laurent Desaulniers, for sharing their complementary perspectives, and to Marc Gervais for moderating the discussion.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to these valuable exchanges!
