Boards of Directors have an inescapable legal responsibility to protect their organisation’s assets and shareholder value against risks. Where does cybersecurity fit in the agenda? Many boards lack the knowledge, awareness and confidence to connect security to the business. In this webcast, moderator Paul Edon, Director of Customer Services at Tripwire, will provide a variety of perspectives from experienced professionals in the industry — including Amar Singh UK CISO for Elsevier, Ray Stanton EVP Professional Services at BT and Advisory Board Member of ISF, and Gary Cheetham, CISO at NFU Mutual.

8. Consider, understand and focus on the business processes
that when disrupted would get the board involved.
Encourage the board and senior executives to be
trained/educated in cyber and privacy basics.
The board members are presented business risks. Integrate,
not align, your risk framework and register with the same
risk ecosystem.

9. Clarity of what is important to the board, and messaging to suit.
Remaining unemotional when delivering messages, passion not
emotion – it’s not personal.
Deliver the message with business context, not security
or risk babble.

10. Never miss an opportunity to get your message across.
Focus on the impacts to them in their role and prioritise.
Keep it simple and in their language – technobabble
doesn’t work!

11. Don’t try to answer the question “Are we secure?” but rather
“How secure are we?”
Build and maintain your credibility with the board.
Prepare, plan and then prepare some more.
