- Proactive Boards Enable More Reliable Cyber Governance
In the face of growing cyber threats, boards play a critical role in effective cybersecurity governance. The SEC’s new cybersecurity disclosure regulation puts even greater emphasis on the board’s duty to oversee how management addresses cyber risk and compliance obligations. It’s more important than ever for directors to understand the threat landscape, identify knowledge gaps, nurture a cyber-aware culture and evolve their governance practices. By taking a proactive approach to cybersecurity governance, boards can help management protect the organization and meet compliance needs.
- Are We Ready for CISOs To Be More Flexible?
Love them or hate them, companies need their CISOs and security teams.
Ask DevOps teams or lines of business leaders, and they will groan about the security measures, the constant security updates, and the inflexibility of some policies reining in their growth.
It’s not that CISOs do not want their business teams to seize opportunities and explore new revenue opportunities quickly; they just feel that the risks aren’t worth it.
- CISO Best Practices for Managing Cyber Risk
Leading CISOs have offered best practices for security leaders on how to manage cyber risks effectively during the ISC2 Security Congress 2023 in Nashville, Tennessee.
Andrew Smeaton, CISO at Affiniti, and Greg Rogers, CISO for the State of Maryland, set out a range of tips on how to undertake cyber risk management sustainably amid an increasingly complex threat and regulatory environment.

- Strategic Leadership
Strategic leadership is a practice in which executives, using different styles of management, develop a vision for their organization that enables it to adapt to or remain competitive in a changing economic and technological climate. Strategic leaders can use this vision to motivate employees and departments, fostering among them a sense of unity and direction to implement change within their organization.
The main objectives of strategic leadership are to streamline processes, boost strategic productivity, promote innovation and cultivate an environment that encourages employees to be productive, independent and to push forward their own ideas. Strategic leaders sometimes make use of reward or incentive programs to encourage employees and help them reach their goals.
