Breaking software resilience to defend the vulnerable Copy

Software resilience is also about more than protecting the data and IP that it contains, its ultimately about safeguarding societies most vulnerable. The recent IT incident at the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development (DOJ&CD) demonstrates that, after all is said and done about financing for service resilience & integrity measures this really can be a matter of human survival.

The most vulnerable members of society, children in single-parent households desperate for financial support go without at least one critical service, an electronic child maintenance payments.

This, sadly is not an isolated incident. Manoj Puri, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at ABSA indicated that "Digital crimes are very much opportunistic and take advantage of any vulnerability". While corporations are likely the face of high-profile cyberattacks, government departments with their tremendous resources and potentially less secure protocols would be a far more susceptible - that is to say juicy - target for nefarious actors.

These breaches have wide ranging impact. In the case of DOJ&CD it is not only tax payers who bear a burden but directly, those whom many regard as being some of the most vulnerable in our society.
This is where smart solutions kick in. By proactively safeguarding this critical intellectual property and ensuring continued service, organizations can protect the very people who depend on them.
