“…As a basis for designing our method, we draw on two frameworks: the resilience awareness framework of Marella et al [18] and the cyber resilience assurance framework of Conklin and Schumacher [19]. The first defines five levels of resilience awareness for process models, as follows: no resilience awareness, failure awareness, data resilience, milestone resilience, and process resilience [18].…”

“…The first defines five levels of resilience awareness for process models, as follows: no resilience awareness, failure awareness, data resilience, milestone resilience, and process resilience [18]. The second framework [19] proposes seven steps for ensuring cyber resilience, namely classifying threats, risk assessment, ranking threats, design and deployment of a solution, testing the solution, creating a recovery process, and evolving the solution. We chose these sources as the basis for our work because of their suitability to our context and the possibility to use them complementarily.…”

“…The second step focuses on assessing the possible risks related to the EA. We choose to include risk assessment in our method because of its importance emphasized by other authors [18,19] in relation to resilience. In [19] the cyber resilience framework includes risk assessment and threats ranking as separate steps in its application process.…”

In the past decades, a broad range of technological innovations have helped organizations reach new levels of performance and have shaped the economies of the world and societies of the future. However, unexpected events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the blocking of the Suez Canal, have shown that many organizations are unprepared to deal with the impact of the disturbances that can occur. Thus, organizations are challenged to include resilience in the design of their Information Systems and Enterprise Architectures (EAs). We respond to this challange and propose a five-step method aimed to help organizations design resilient enterprise architectures to be able to better deal with (un-) expected disturbances. Our method builds upon the 'EA resilience by design' paradigm, combines knowledge from several domains, namely resilience, risk analysis, and EA, and leverages the ArchiMate 3.1 language to model several resilience characteristics. Using a case study at a leading manufacturing organization in the agri-food sector in Lithuania, we demonstrate the applicability of our method and draw some early lessons learned based on our very first evaluation with experts.

In 2000, during a time when cyber security research was focused on the risks and threats posed by digital systems, the notion of being able to withstand and recover from cyber attacks, also known as cyber resilience, emerged. Recently, this concept has gained increasing attention due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the rapid acceleration of digitalization. While experts acknowledge the distinction between cyber security and cyber resilience, the exact definition and evolution of the latter remain somewhat ambiguous. The aim of this paper is to offer a thorough comprehension of how the notion of cyber resilience has developed throughout history. It delves into the concept of cyber resilience and its progression over time in response to the rising frequency and complexity of cyber threats. Cyber resilience, a new concept, has gained significant recognition as a critical component of cyber security strategy across diverse sectors, encompassing public and private domains alike. It begins with an overview of the definition and key components of cyber resilience and then traces the origin of the concept from its early development in the 2000s. The paper also explores the major milestones and events that have shaped the evolution of this capacity, including changes in technology and societal factors, up to the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. This study provides valuable insights into future challenges for ensuring the continued resilience of digital infrastructure by examining the historical and contextual factors that have influenced the concept.
