The state of CISO influence

Resources New 814x460 State of CISO

This new survey of InfoSec leaders conducted by Dark Reading explores how the CISO role has evolved, how the C-suite and board view cybersecurity, and where the best growth opportunities for CISOs and CSOs are found today.

 

The report explores the role of CISOs across four categories: operational basics, dimensions of success, security culture and influence, and leadership philosophy.

 

Key survey findings include:

  • CISOs need to be prepared to demonstrate the value of their programs in dimensions the business cares about, namely reduced risk exposure.
  • 27% of top security leaders report directly to the CEO, a big bump compared to many previous industry surveys over the years.
