This latest report from ClubCISO, a Telstra Purple community, provides an overview of the challenges facing today’s CISOs. ClubCISO now has over 350 CISOs in its community which is a hugely active membership sharing experiences and opinions on everything from the latest threats to security operating models on a daily basis. This is the community’s seventh annual report on information security maturity which has been independently produced based on a survey of 100 information security leaders working in the public and private sectors globally. This is the most thorough survey of the current state of IT security and the most detailed view of the role of the CISO that has been published to date.
The report serves to identify clear trends across the UK information security landscape, enables businesses to benchmark their security investments against peer organisations and illuminates the current hopes, challenges and frustrations of information security leaders. Key themes and trends that emerged from the survey results are highlighted including the hottest topics on CISOs’ radars: cyber resilience, security culture and cloud security.
