Cybersecurity

The fifth edition of this handbook provides boards with an independently validated framework built on six oversight principles along with fifteen boardroom tools with best practices to enable boards to address board-level cyber-risk oversight issues.

Directors’ confidence in cybersecurity oversight has grown, yet in evolving threat environment, they recognize the need for improvements in key areas.
