From www.aicd.com.au: As cyber threats increase, boards demand greater accountability from Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs), who must effectively engage with them to enhance cybersecurity governance.

CISOs need the board’s support in setting strategic direction, fostering a security-aware culture, and allocating necessary resources while also translating complex cyber risks into business terms.

The evolving relationship between boards and CISOs highlights the importance of effective communication, collaboration, and proactive risk management to safeguard organisational data.
