🚨 How Do You Battle Your Greatest Cyber Vulnerability: Board & C-Suite Cyber Ignorance? Ep117 of the #CyberBoardCast navigates the historic SolarWinds cyber breach and the related CEO and Board Chair cyber responsibility.

 

The SolarWinds cyberattack is a stark reminder that cybersecurity is not just a CISO's responsibility—it's a Board and C-Suite mandate. The breach highlighted the devastating consequences of cyber ignorance at the highest levels and poses the question: How do CEOs and Board Chairs address this critical vulnerability?

 

Key Takeaways:

1) CEO and Board Chair's cybersecurity decisions are crucial.

2) Over 70% of breaches stem from cyber(in)secure conduct, strategy, and culture, not tech weaknesses.

🔒 Develop an Executive Cybersecurity Blueprint™ for breach prevention and response.

🛡️ Craft incident response plans that include the entire leadership.
