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.

Presented by:

  • Anna Delaney, Executive Director, Information Security Media Group
  • Robin Das, Executive Director, Market Growth Strategy, DataBee

Cybersecurity budgets continue to rise, yet boards often feel exposed. Technical metrics like patching or phishing detections don’t translate into business impact. In a recent interview with Information Security Media Group at the Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit in London, Robin Das and Anna Delaney discussed how outcome-driven metrics help CISOs earn greater trust at the board level by connecting investments to continuity and resilience.

In the conversation they discussed:

  • The need for stronger alignment with stakeholders, consistent education, and clean data practices
  • Why early engagement and ongoing board education are critical
  • How regulations like DORA and GDPR create urgency and provide leverage for essential programs
