CISOs Beware: Boardroom Blues Could Spell Cyber Doom

CISOs are tired of playing the ‘Chicken Little’ of cybersecurity, but boards keep treating their “sky is falling” alerts as mere IT melodrama—until a $200k cyber oopsie wakes them up. Cue strategic thinking epiphany. #CISOcriedCyber

Hot Take:

Oh, the CISOs, the Cassandra of the modern corporate world! They foretell the doom of cyber threats, and just like the ancient Greek tragedy, nobody takes them seriously until the digital Trojan horse is inside the firewall. It's time for board members to realize that the "nagging" might actually be a life-saving chant, and the "overly negative" is the new realism in a world where cyber baddies are as common as coffee breaks. Treating cybersecurity as an IT-only issue is a bit like saying the Titanic's iceberg problem was just a navigation hiccup. Let's not wait for a $200k wakeup call, shall we?
