With ever-growing Cybersecurity concerns, one of the most important roles in a company is that of its Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). The CISO is a senior-level executive responsible to provide leadership, strategy and guidance to manage the risks to confidentiality, integrity and availability of the organization’s information assets. Large companies have a hierarchy of people in the Chief Information Security Officer’s department. However, if you are a small to medium-sized company, then you may not have the resources or even the need for a full-time CISO.
