Building a Comprehensive IT Security Program

Abstract

Have you ever sat in a boardroom directly after a cyber-attack? I have, and it is a terrible experience. Chief Executive Officers (CEOs), Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs), and Chief Information Officers (CIOs) silently shake their heads and stare out the window, wondering if their lives have been destroyed by this attack. What will happen to their organization in the following months? How many people will be laid off as a result? Too many hold their head in their hands contemplating the damage to the organization they have dedicated their lives to building after a cyber-attack.
