The stakes in cybersecurity have never been higher. As global ransomware and supply chain attacks intensify, organizations face a critical inflection point: rely on traditional defenses that are demonstrably failing, or embrace proactive, continuous validation. At Lucenor, we believe that proactive, continuous validation via Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) and stringent supply chain security are foundational to counter the persistent failure of conventional defenses against sophisticated cyberattacks. This is not merely an operational concern; it’s a strategic imperative for the C-suite, directly impacting resilience, reputation, and market standing.
