101: The Citrix Session: Help mitigate your organization’s cybersecurity risks – Part 1

Mar 3, 2022

Cybersecurity can often seem to present impossible challenges as organizations strive to repel attack attempts. But, really, cybersecurity’s is about risk management — layering on controls to reduce risk to an acceptable level.

Cybersecurity risk management requires a multi-faceted approach, and organizations should evaluate risk and choose the appropriate option(s) to address it. After a thorough risk assessment, the organization can choose to:

• Accept the risk: Organizations can acknowledge the risk and choose not to resolve, transfer, or mitigate it if it is not feasible.
• Avoid or eliminate the risk: This option may involve elimination of the risky service or feature to remove the risk from the equation.
• Mitigate the risk: This option is where technical and administrative controls are implemented to reduce the likelihood or impact of risk.
• Transfer the risk: This option assigns or moves the risk to a third-party via cyber liability insurance.
