Mike Saylor, Professor of Cybersecurity at The University of Texas at San Antonio, offers his expert insight on preventing high-profile cybersecurity breaches by emphasizing the crucial role of continuous monitoring and timely response in cybersecurity.

He states, “You can invest in all these different technologies and layers, but at the end of the day, if you’re not continuously monitoring it and capable of identifying, and responding to threats in a timely manner, you’re gonna get breached.”
