It’s a bold new world in business.
Driven by events no one could have foreseen, leaders in recent years have pushed their companies and themselves beyond their comfort zone: out of the office to remote workplaces; into the cloud; along chains of supply that are nearly completely digital. And with each new venture has come new cyber risks.
Our latest findings from our 2023 Global Digital Trust Insights survey-reflecting the views of over 3,500 business, security and IT leaders across various industries across 60+ territories shows that Cybersecurity has become a dynamic field, rapidly adjusting and shifting to keep apace with business inventiveness.
CISO are seizing the initiative getting the go-ahead to truly lead — to step out of their independent cyber-specialist role and into one of partnering with not just with a few executives, but throughout the entire C-suite and Board. These collaborations have never been more critical.
46% of CEOs want to empower the CISO to collaborate with the C-Suite on security next year. It’s exactly what’s needed for the tougher challenges ahead. How can each of you continue to make a difference? Where should CISOs and cyber teams wield influence for the greatest effect?
The C-suite playbook on cybersecurity and privacy, featuring our latest survey Global Digital Trust Insights, highlights what lies ahead in 2023 and how executives can work together for cyber-ready futures.
