Cyber Risk Governance: The Hype, Hope, and Harsh Reality – John Sapp – CSP #133
Cyber Risk Governance or Cyber Risk Management has been an often talked about concept for more nearly two decades yet remains one of the most elusive and sought after outcomes by every C-level executive across every line of business in every industry sector and particularly in the Board room.
In this session, we are going to jump into the shoes of the C-level executives and Board members as we describe "what they want" and how we achieve the visual representation of cyber risk in a way that is easily consumable in a language that is universally understood across three levels of stakeholders (Operational/Technical, IT Management, C-level / Board).
