Security News > 2021 > September > [eBook] Your First 90 Days as CISO — 9 Steps to Success

The first 90 days for a new CISO are crucial in setting up their security team, so there is little time to waste, and much to accomplish.

A new guide by XDR provider Cynet looks to give new and veteran CISOs a durable foundation to build a successful security organization.

Having clearly defined steps planned out can help CISOs seize the opportunity for change and implement security capabilities that allow organizations to grow and prosper.

The eBook explains how new CISOs should tackle their first 90 days to ensure that each passing week builds on the last, and lets security leaders understand both their current reality, and what they need to improve.

Understanding business risks - The first two weeks of a new security leader's new job should be spent not doing but learning.

Evaluate SaaS vendors - Finally, and with the goal of using SaaS applications wherever possible, a new CISO must carefully consider existing vendors to find a solution that can cover as many services as possible without requiring complex and potentially risky security stacks.
