Tuesday Cyber Lacuna Slide - Summer Retreat (CISO as a Strategic Partner)

Cyber Lacuna Slide: The CISO needs to be accepted and expected to be a strategic business partner  for the business. Too often business sees information security or cyber security as IT. This makes it even harder for business to see the value of having a partner to advocate for the security of the business processes for which they are responsible. If the CISO does not have a seat at the table, they need to make sure they have security staff embedded in the units at the functional level to enable business while advocating for security. The CISO needs liaisons, business information security analysts, cyber security strategic partners, or whatever you want to call them that understand lines of business. Security has not been just a technical IT issue for a long time.
