What you'll learn

Cyber resilience has become the new focal point in security conversations, appearing in frameworks, regulations, and board agendas. This episode of Security Hot Takes explores why resilience is more than a rebrand and how it reflects a broader shift from prevention to continuity. We break down the strategic meaning of resilience, the growing emphasis on governance and accountability, and the move from IT incidents to business service continuity. We discuss why identifying critical assets, improving incident readiness, and building a security-aware culture are now essential leadership responsibilities rather than technical side projects. The conversation also highlights the difference between compliance and true resilience, and why testing, communication, and decision-making under pressure matter more than checklists. Whether you are a security leader, engineer, or business decision-maker, this episode offers a clear, practical view of what it takes to build an organization that can adapt, recover, and sustain its mission when security controls inevitably fail.
