While defense in depth is the foundation of cybersecurity, it may not be sufficient by itself to protect organizations fully.
Why It’s Not Enough
A Holistic Approach
To address these challenges, organizations should adopt a more holistic cybersecurity approach that includes:
- Continuous monitoring and threat detection
- Regularly updated threat intelligence
- Incident response and recovery planning
- Employee training and awareness programs
- Regular security assessments and penetration testing
- Collaboration and information sharing with industry peers and government entities
By complementing defense in depth with these additional measures, organizations can enhance their resilience against the ever-evolving landscape of modern cyber threats.
