CISOs Prioritize Realistic Crisis Simulations Amid Escalating Threats
Cybersecurity leaders are prioritizing realistic crisis simulations to bolster their defenses in the face of escalating threats. Influenced by recent high-profile attacks and a growing concern over incident response planning, 77% of CISOs are eager to invest in more realistic and actionable simulations.
Haris Pylarinos, CEO and Founder of Hack The Box, believes the future of crisis simulation lies in expert knowledge and AI systems. This approach aims to create highly realistic and tailored scenarios that unite business units and enable real-world performance benchmarking in a controlled environment.
Driven by growing concerns around rising attack volumes and inadequate incident response planning, CISOs are making crisis simulation their top business priority for 2025, with 73% focusing on cyber incident live drills. To support this shift, 74% plan to increase their crisis simulation budgets this year, with 16% reallocating funds from other areas of their security budgets.
The increased investment in realistic crisis simulations reflects the cybersecurity community's recognition of the importance of preparedness in an ever-evolving threat landscape. As CISOs prioritize incident response planning, the integration of expert knowledge and AI in crisis simulations is set to revolutionize cybersecurity strategies.
