What is Cyber Risk Remediation?

Cyber risk remediation involves addressing and mitigating identified vulnerabilities, threats, and weaknesses within an organization's cybersecurity infrastructure. This encompasses patching software vulnerabilities, updating security configurations, implementing additional security controls, and conducting employee security awareness training. Remediation efforts aim to reduce the likelihood and impact of cyberattacks, enhance resilience to cyber threats, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations and standards. It involves a proactive approach to continuously monitor controls, cyber risk assessments, and rapid risk responses.
