Description

Independent Directors of corporate boards understand the importance of cybersecurity as a business issue. Increased regulatory requirements, the onslaught of breaches, as well as the replacement of the corporate network perimeter with more third-party partnerships, have all contributed to cybersecurity rising to the top of enterprise risks. Yet, many Directors only receive a few brief cybersecurity updates during the year. Moreover, many Directors have devoted their careers to other important business disciplines and may not fully grasp the technical concepts of cybersecurity. The challenge is that many publications on board cybersecurity governance address the topic at such a high level that it removes the important context of the cybersecurity details - or covers the topic too deeply with hard-to-understand technical language. These resources may often provide lists of security questions for Directors to ask of their management team, but they do not provide the answers to the questions so that actionable oversight can be performed. What I wanted, and why you are probably reading this book summary, is a resource that delivers the questions to ask, but also the answers - and in a narrative, easy-to-understand style. An award-winning Chief Information Security Officer with over two decades of working with multiple Fortune 500 boards, Lee Parrish provides an example-laden vision to improve cybersecurity governance in the boardroom. Additionally, Lee deciphers the technical jargon to increase the reader’s cyber fluency – not to make you a cyber expert, but to be able to ask direct questions, understand the answers provided, challenge strategies, and advise on important cyber decisions. Pick up your copy of The Shortest Hour: An Applied Approach to Boardroom Cybersecurity Governance today and start your journey on achieving more effective cybersecurity oversight. Want to learn more?
