BACKGROUND

Confronting the Surge in Critical Infrastructure Attacks

Facing a rise in global cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure, a multinational Canadian mining company partnered with Resilience to proactively assess its security maturity. Their goal was to identify gaps, benchmark their defenses, and build a strategic roadmap to reduce cyber risk across operations.

CHALLENGE

Building Scalable Security Without Disrupting Mining Operations

The company needed to align its cybersecurity program with industry standards while defending against emerging threats targeting critical infrastructure. At the same time, it had to build a scalable, long-term strategy that wouldn’t interfere with ongoing mining operations.

SOLUTION

Validating Defenses Through Layered Breach and Attack Simulations

The company used Resilience’s Edge Solution to simulate real-world attacks with Breach and Attack Simulations, uncovering key vulnerabilities. Guided by those findings, they executed a prioritized Cyber Action Plan and conducted Tabletop Exercises to validate and improve response capabilities across ransomware and vendor risk scenarios.

RESULTS

Resolving Critical Gaps and Future-Proofing Defense

The company resolved critical vulnerabilities identified through simulations and built a long-term strategy for continuous testing and improvement. With layered validation and recurring assessments, they strengthened their cyber posture against evolving threats.
