CISO Strategy Guide: How security leaders can score more budget and transform their position with a seat at the table
Despite its critical role in shielding a company - and in turn, its customers - from the myriad of cyber threats arrayed against it, cybersecurity budgets can still be viewed as cost centers by the C-Suite, not to mention other key stakeholders. On the other side, some CISOs struggle to dispel this sentiment with fellow executives or members of the board of directors.
Even with the current economic headwinds, there is a better approach that can help preserve - even enhance - cybersecurity budgets that are under the microscope. World-class CISOs are rising to the occasion, justifying the value of holistic security programs, and successfully positioning their strategy and teams as valuable assets worth considerable ongoing investment.
In this all-new strategy guide, you will learn:
- The current challenges CISOs face in defending their organizations from a growing range of cyber threats
- Four methods to change the conversation in the boardroom and win greater support
- How to tie business objectives to cybersecurity goals for better security outcomes.
