We’re seeing increasing pressure and anxiety put on the CISO role, as legal and regulatory pressure seems to single out people in these positions. This leaves CISOs with a lot to balance, from regulatory issues and the need for authority and empowerment to compensation and D&O coverage. Navigating this requires open communication with corporate HR and legal departments to ensure CISOs are protected and aligned with company interests, says Ben Carr, advisory CISO, Halcyon. It’s more important for prospective CISOs to be their best advocate, consulting employment attorneys and seeking assurances at the time of hire.
