IDC Spotlight: Principles of Being a Data-Driven Cybersecurity Leader
Free the CISO, a podcast series that attempts to free CISOs from their shackles so they can focus on securing their organization, is produced by CIO.com in partnership with DataBee®, from Comcast Technology Solutions.
In each episode, Robin Das, Executive Director at Comcast under the DataBee team, explores the CISO’s role through the position’s relationship with other security stakeholders, from regulators and the Board of Directors to internal personnel and outside vendors.
IDC Spotlight: Principles of Being a Data-Driven Cybersecurity Leader
Managing cybersecurity programs without objective intelligence and insights that could accelerate decision-making is a huge challenge in today's rapidly evolving threat and regulatory landscapes. With limited data and metrics available to them, cybersecurity and GRC leaders often end up spending too much time on the tactical challenge of collecting and analyzing data and metrics, and not enough time being the strategic business leaders that they are.
The IDC Spotlight, Principles of Being a Data-Driven Cybersecurity Leader, sponsored by DataBee from Comcast Technology Solutions, highlights what’s needed to enable the transformation from tactical to strategic cybersecurity leadership, and how a contextual security data fabric can help facilitate this transformation. With the fabric’s ability to collect and utilize outcome-driven and actionable contextual insights, cybersecurity leaders can “effectively manage cybersecurity as a strategic component of the overall business strategy.”
Reading this paper, you’ll gain a greater understanding of:
- The key principles to help cybersecurity leaders transform into data-driven leaders
- The specific benefits of applying these principles to your security program
- How a “contextual data intelligence repository” (fabric) can help security leaders increase or accelerate the ability to collect and utilize outcome-driven and actionable contextual metrics, statistics, and insights
