CISO interview: Reduce cybersecurity breaches with a proactive risk-based approach

What does a risk-based cybersecurity approach consist of? Attack surface visibility, attack simulation, exposure management, cyber risk scoring, and vulnerability assessments.

In this video interview, CISO Mark Lynd explores a new cybersecurity benchmarking study that reveals how a risk-based approach prevents breaches.

So, what does this risk-based approach consist of?

• Attack surface visibility and context
• Attack simulation
• Exposure management
• Risk scoring
• Vulnerability assessments

These capabilities provide organizations with a deep, evidence-based understanding — of their attack surface, greatest risks, and how to prioritize vulnerabilities. And they directly address key causes of breaches as identified by the study, such as misconfigurations, unknown assets, and poor cyber hygiene.

In 2021, nearly half of organizations with no breaches were risk-based cybersecurity leaders. Learn how major global companies, including Delta Airlines, Motorola, and Southern Company, are adopting this new groundbreaking approach to mitigate cyber risk.
