In the dynamic landscape of cyberspace, organizations face a variety of threats that demand a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. To build a robust defense, it is crucial to address five fundamental areas in which organizations of all sizes and industries struggle: Access Management, Vendor Risk Management, Resilience, Incident Response, and Asset Management.
LBMC’s Cybersecurity Consulting team identified these five as the primary areas of concern based on data pulled from a sample of 30 different client risk assessments performed in 2023. Of this sample, 93% of organizations had at least one of these areas identified as a significant gap in their overall security posture. Furthermore, 39% of the organizations had two or more of the gaps covered in this list.
In this article, we will explore best practices related to these five topics.
