CERT Spotlight: Resiliency Engineering

Is your business prepared for unexpected events?

Resiliency Engineering Would your business be able to withstand a natural disaster, a targeted attack, or some other unexpected event? Rather than relying on a reactive approach, you can plan ahead to limit the impact of these types of events. This planning involves identifying and establishing the essential capabilities your organization needs to perform to sustain operational resiliency.

Our resiliency engineering research focuses on developing tools, techniques, and methods to help organizations improve their operational resiliency management capabilities.
