CyberWire Daily

The recent frequency of ransomware attacks and heightened visibility of supply chain risks has garnered the attention of executive teams and boards of directors for companies of all sizes, across all industries. For CISOs, these recent events have significantly amplified the importance of establishing and maintaining effective relationships and lines of communication with boards of directors. CISOs are now spending more time than ever engaging, reporting, and answering to boards regarding questions around where their organization is on the cyber risk spectrum. For CISOs, this heightened risk environment presents both a challenge and an opportunity.

In this episode of CyberWire-X, guest ret. Major General Zan Vautrinot and Sponsor JM Search's Jamey Cummings joins the CyberWire's Rick Howard to discuss how today’s CISOs are challenged to develop an ever-expanding skill set to effectively execute in their role while also satisfying concerns and areas of interest of their board of directors. Jamey will also discuss how the evolving role of the CISO is unlocking opportunities for CISOs to elevate their stature, and can open the door for them to serve in board roles as companies are increasingly prioritizing information security and technology risk management skills for their directors.
