The Role of CISOs in Business Enablement

In this episode of Life of a CISO, Dr. Eric Cole highlights that a CISO's job is not solely focused on information security but also on balancing risks and enabling the organization to maximize revenue and profit. He emphasizes that to be an effective CISO, it is crucial to understand the company's business, its customers, revenue model, growth plans, and historical performance.  He further focuses on the need for CISOs to be effective leaders who prioritize business objectives while managing cyber risks, rather than solely focusing on information security.
