Cybersecurity Risk Management and Threat Mitigation Strategies

Abstract

In today's increasingly digital landscape, cybersecurity risk management and threat mitigation are essential for protecting organizational assets and sensitive data. The rise in cyberattacks such as ransom ware, phishing, and advanced persistent threats has intensified the need for effective cybersecurity measures. This paper explores various strategies for managing cybersecurity risks, including risk assessment, risk treatment, and continuous monitoring. Additionally, threat mitigation techniques such as encryption, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems are discussed in-depth. Through a comprehensive review of both traditional and emerging practices, this paper aims to provide insights into how organizations can build resilient cybersecurity frameworks that adapt to evolving threats.
