Educating the board about cybersecurity threats
In our fast-moving, interconnected world, cyber risks are growing and business leaders need to identify and protect what’s most crucial to their organisations.
A firm’s cybersecurity strategy should be led from the top; it’s crucial that board members understand and prepare for attacks.
