CISOs Minimize Digital Risk

Digital leaders look to the chief information security officer to help them minimize risk

CISOs must be leaders for digital transformation

Security and IT risk management (SRM) is critical to every successful digital business. As information owners grow more accountable for the digital technologies they deploy, they look to you, the SRM leader, to inform their decisions and help balance risk management and benefits.

 

By 2022, cybersecurity ratings will become as important as credit ratings when assessing the risk of business relationships.
By proactively assessing risk appetite and the value of the desired business outcome, CIOs and chief information security officers (CISOs) can transform digital risk management into a competitive advantage.
