There is continuing pressure to keep our information secure and breach-free. At the same time, management often doesn’t see the need of increasing budget if there isn’t an incident occurring or a compliance need.

None of the Top 10 skills a CISO needs include technological know-how!

According to a study released by University of Kansas researchers, communication, political skills, and risk assessment and management all made the top 10 most important skills CISO said they needed. Through this talk, we will be discussing some of the key points in implementing, managing, and creating risk oversight to communicate both internally to the security team and externally with the company.
