Gartner stated in an April 2015 research survey report that risk data regularly influences the decisions of 71% of an organization’s boards of directors. With more Chief Information Security Officers having to present to their boards on the state of cybersecurity and the risk potential for an event occurring that can create a significant negative impact on the business, being able to demonstrate the effectiveness of a “lean-forward” approach to cybersecurity controls rather than how the company will respond to the event is critical.As seen in the graph below, the biggest impact to the business isn’t the cost of recovery or regulatory fines but rather the loss of intellectual property, productivity, revenue and reputation.
