Technative, January 9th, 2023
What is now required is political acumen, managerial experience and personal gravitas, more than raw technology skills.
In spite of being widely used, the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has only had a few decades of existence and is still evolving.
Research from the Security Transformation Research Foundation - based on the semantic analysis of the content of 17 annual global security reports from EY between 2002 and 2019 - points towards the role having already gone through 2 clear phases in its evolution, as it heads into its third decade of existence.
