A ransomware reality check for CISOs

While cyber insurance is an effective risk transference mechanism, don't confuse it with having a plan.

Boards and C-suites understand and commonly factor in a variety of business risks, including market risk, supply chain risk, and liquidity risk, yet many don't understand industrial cyber risk.

Given all the advantages to be gained through digital transformation, cyber risk within industrial enterprises is not a question of "If" but "When".

Keeping your head in the sand once you are aware of your organization's risk puts you in a state of negligence.

While there are a lot of things we can't do in the face of attack, there is an abundance of things we can do to mitigate risk.

To mitigate risk, the most effective path forward is to explore the technical, legal, and regulatory means we have available to enable and encourage behaviors that mitigate risk.
