<p><strong>Preamble</strong></p>
<p>Term: CISO</p>
<ul>
<li>Pronounced SEE-so or SAI-so</li>
<li>Chief Information Security Officer</li>
<li>Sounds like executive leadership position, similar to Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO), etc but this is often not the case</li>
</ul>
<p>Security leadership is changing</p>
<p>Old way:</p>
<ul>
<li>Experienced technologists (Usually old white guys) worked way up ranks</li>
<li>Usually reported through IT (CIO/CTO)</li>
<li>Department of "No" - Block everything bad</li>
<li>Slows down business</li>
</ul>
<p>New way:</p>
<ul>
<li>Experienced business professionals with leadership skills and security understanding</li>
<li>Can report through:
<ul>
<li>IT (CIO/CTO)</li>
<li>Legal (For compliance reasons)</li>
<li>Finance (CFO) for governance or compliance reasons</li>
<li>Financial impacts of attacks</li>
<li>Direct costs</li>
<li>Fines</li>
<li>CEO - Seat at the table with other C-level execs</li>
<li>Direct to board</li>
</ul></li>
<li>Empowers the business to succeed in a secure way</li>
<li>Can still slow down the business, but only when needed
<ul>
<li>Brakes on a race car</li>
</ul></li>
