to incorporate architectural and defensive enhancements, our cybersecurity defenses<br />

become stronger and more resilient as the threat level rises.<br />

Implementing Iterative Security<br />

• Adopt Agile Development Practices: Agile development is built on constant<br />

improvement and prioritization based on the demands of the customers, market, or<br />

competition. <strong>Cyber</strong>security can follow the same path, delivering incremental<br />

improvements quickly and efficiently.<br />

• Per<strong>for</strong>m Regular Security Assessments: Periodic reviews ensure threats are<br />

understood and vulnerabilities are identified much like routine inspections and upgrades<br />

of a <strong>for</strong>tress. Iterative Security doesn’t mean waiting to get compromised be<strong>for</strong>e<br />

innovating.<br />

• Foster Security Awareness: Educating the organization about security practices helps<br />

identify potential threats and, in turn, trigger analysis and response. “Milord, you know<br />

that we use the back stairs and that unlocked door in the wall to fetch your ale, right?”<br />

Conclusion<br />

Like those ancient defenders, we must face external threats quickly and efficiently. Not every<br />

barbarian sighting warranted building 40-foot stone walls and conscripting all the villagers. Not<br />

every script kiddie warrants a cutting edge, million-dollar plat<strong>for</strong>m. <strong>Cyber</strong>security is a highly<br />

dynamic and rapidly evolving space. Our cybersecurity strategies should be the same. As<br />

CISOs, our goal is to create systems capable of mitigating threats and responding to new<br />

challenges without hamstringing the business. Chasing perfect security and zero risk is both<br />

costly and unattainable. <strong>The</strong> iterative approach to cybersecurity offers a pragmatic and effective<br />

strategy <strong>for</strong> protecting modern organizations. It not only ensures a strong current-state posture,<br />

but it also supports the agility and innovation essential <strong>for</strong> businesses to thrive in today's digital<br />

world. In simple terms, don’t build an impressive stone tower when a simple wooden fence will<br />

do.<br />
