Cyberattack Mitigations During the Pandemic6
The nature and frequency of Cybersecurity incidents during the COVID-19 pandemic required an approach that would provide multiple layers of protection for digital assets and yet offer performance with minimal service disruptions. Given their scope and sophistication, only a defense in-depth model could have sufficiently tackled their unpredictability.
A defense in-depth Cybersecurity model is the simultaneous application of several control measures to a single-valued asset to optimize efficacy. The control measures make up the defense in-depth approach work in a complementary manner, ensuring that at any time the asset is safeguarded by two or more layers of protection for maximum security.
