The need to mature cybersecurity

As the financial and reputational costs of a data breach continue to reach new heights, cybersecurity is top of mind for leadership across every industry. And yet, as cybersecurity's profile rises, so does its complexity. New solutions and vendors appear on the market every day. There never seem to be enough skilled resources. And cyber attackers are exposing new vulnerabilities faster than ever.

CISOs can no longer focus strictly on developing technical capabilities and protecting their organizations. Executives and boards are looking to CISOs to make investments that drive growth with a holistic security framework. No security program can fully eliminate risk, technical vulnerability or human error, but a mature approach to cybersecurity can mitigate the risks that pose the most danger to organizational objectives and success.
