Security News > 2020 > February > Three things CISOs need to do differently in 2020
Security leaders need to connect their work to broader business goals and create a culture of learning to attract talent.
Chief information security officers need to focus on communication, collaboration and culture in 2020 to improve cybersecurity and boost the profile of the security team as well.
Security professionals in general need to think beyond systems and technology to connect security priorities with overall business goals, according to a new report from KPMG. KPMG's new report, "All hands on deck: Key cybersecurity considerations for 2020" offers advice about how CISOs can improve communication and collaboration skills as well as build a work environment that will attract the best new talent.
Dani Michaux, a principal at KPMG Cyber Security Services, said that security veterans need to accept that the world is always changing and assess the best available tech to best defend the enterprise.
CISOs need to visualize a company's specific operational priorities and partner with other business heads to incorporate those insights into the company's cyber security plan.
