In this episode, Omar Rao breaks down why cyber resilience is no longer only a security team issue. It is a leadership issue. When a serious cyber incident happens, the quality of executive thinking, communication, and decision-making can shape the outcome as much as the tools on the screen. This episode explains what leaders often get wrong during cyber crises, how strong organizations respond under pressure, and what real cyber resilience looks like when the goal is not only to detect the threat, but to keep the business moving.
