When you are in crisis mode, you need less paperwork and more immediate action.

Every so often, something comes along that forces you to recalibrate how you think about cyber risk. Not incrementally, but fundamentally. Claude Mythos feels like one of those moments.

From cybersecurity breaches to natural disasters, disruptive events can occur suddenly and without warning. As a result, it is crucial for organizations to develop resilient plans that not only respond to incidents in real time but also ensure long-term operational survivability.
