Brass Tacks #5 - Quantifying Cyber Risk: A Board-Level Cybersecurity Priority

Welcome to Brass Tacks - Talking Cybersecurity, the latest Fortinet
podcast series where we discuss the business implications of
cybersecurity. In this predominantly business-focused episode of
Brass Tacks - Talking Cybersecurity, our host, Joe Robertson, talks
to Mark Child, Associate Research Director for European Security at
IDC, about the elevation of cybersecurity as a board-level priority
and the various trends that are driving this. Together they discuss
the evolving reputational capital of the CISO and their role in
translating cyber risk into business risk in terms that board-level
executives can understand. With reference to high-profile examples
where failures to adequately assess such risk led to catastrophic
reputational, operational and strategic costs - in some cases
running to hundreds of millions of dollars - the discussion then
turns to some of the proven strategies used by today's leaders to
properly quantify risk as a holistic whole across all environments
within the organization. More about Fortinet:
