Cyber Resilience: General Overview and Focus on Financial Services, Manufacturing, and Utilities – InBrief Analysis

This report examines how enterprises build cyber resilience—the ability to anticipate, withstand, recover from, and adapt to cyberattacks—in financial services, manufacturing, and utilities. It outlines a cross-industry playbook grounded in zero trust, an “assume breach” mindset, engineered recovery with tested recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO), and unified detection/response using SIEM, UEBA, EDR/XDR, and SOAR. It addresses today’s threats—ransomware, software supply chain compromise, business email compromise (BEC), identity sprawl, and legacy systems—while detailing sector specifics: instant-payment fraud and cryptographic estates in banking; plant-safe IT/OT controls, OEM access, and “golden image” restores in manufacturing; and substation zoning, signed commands, and black-start drills in utilities. A two-horizon roadmap (0-90 days and 6-24 months) prioritizes inventories, identity hardening, immutable backups, microsegmentation, cloud posture, OT visibility, and continuous control testing. Service providers accelerate outcomes via MDR, exposure management, DevSecOps, and evidence-based recoverability, supported by governance, metrics, and realistic exercises.
