Cyber security is a game – Businesses need to adapt
Reported by itsecurityguru.org
Cyber security is often stated as a problem organisations need to deal with, but it’s an issue which is never going to be completely fixed. Instead of viewing cyber security as a problem, organisations need to start viewing their cyber security as a game and cyber adversaries as challengers in that game. The difference being that problems, like 1+1, have a singular answer. Too much network traffic load for your security perimeter? That’s a problem — install another firewall: done. Games, on the other hand, are never “done”. Games are dynamic and require teams to adapt to moves made by a wide variety of other players.
