  text: 'As digital products become increasingly embedded in organisational operations,
    cyber resilience – the ability to anticipate, withstand, recover from and adapt
    to cyber disruptions – has become essential. This paper investigates how professionals
    in German organisations interpret cyber resilience within the software development
    lifecycle and how socio-technical factors influence its implementation. Drawing
    on the MITRE Cyber Resiliency Engineering Framework for data collection and coding
    on Socio-Technical Systems as an interpretive lens, the study adopts a qualitative
    approach based on semi-structured interviews with 14 professionals across five
    organisations. The findings reveal a pronounced socio-technical imbalance: while
    technical measures centred on anticipate and withstand are comparatively established,
    the corresponding social factors – shared understanding, dedicated responsibility
    structures, and systematic learning – remain underdeveloped. These conditions
    are compounded by resource constraints and the absence of strategic prioritisation.
    Six exploratory hypotheses capture these patterns and offer empirically grounded
    starting points for future research on product-level cyber resilience.'
