Top 3 Priorities for CISOs in 2024
DARKReading, Friday, January 19th, 2024
A changing regulatory and enforcement environment means the smart CISO might need to shift how they work this year.
As the new year begins, CISOs gather with their security teams and corporate management to scope out top priorities for 2024 and how to address these issues. This year - with a multitude of new privacy laws, Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, cyber threats, and new technologies promising to solve those threats - they might be losing sleep trying to optimally stack the proverbial Tetris pieces of the cybersecurity strategy.
Of all the challenges vying for the CISO's attention, the personal and legal responsibility for data breaches the SEC has placed on CISOs could be the most challenging in the new year, says Nicole Sundin, chief product officer at Axio. "With CISOs being elevated to the boardroom to discuss these risks, they will need a system of record to protect themselves and demonstrate duty of care," she notes.
