Regulation and compliance
Team with the C-suite and board to foster cyber transparency
To build trust with shareholders and customers, regulators are requiring businesses to be more transparent about how they manage and govern cyber risks. With this scrutiny, the C-suite can work with the CISO to align cyber capabilities with business goals and deliver accurate reporting, while the board takes a more active cyber risk oversight role.
However, increasing regulatory complexity and challenges aligning standards across multiple agencies makes achieving transparency more difficult. A strong partnership between the CISO, C-suite and board is key.
CISOs can frame cyber risks as business risks, collaborating with risk, financial, technology and legal teams to simplify and contextualize your company’s cyber posture and keep the board well-informed. This shared understanding also supports more defensible reports to regulators.
