The title 'The Cyber-Elephant in the Boardroom' shows why protecting a company's data should be top of mind for C Suites and corporate boards. With the innovative 5 Pillars of Security Framework, any C-level executive can understand their organizations cyber risk and the steps they need to take to protect their information.
The five pillars the book enumerates are physical security, people security, data security, infrastructure security, and crisis management. Putting these in place can assist an organisation in mitigating its risks both from technological and legal perspectives. The core of the book focuses on understanding how data works in your organisation and placing controls around it. Since data is the lifeblood of an organisation, a lack of control over your data is a significant risk.
