While cyber security has a strong IT component, it is also a wider business issue that requires board-level leadership. It is critical for cyber security to be integrated into an organization’s culture and key decision making processes. Failure to establish a connection between cyber threats and an organization’s culture may lead to the decline of a business’s reputation and, ultimately, competitive advantage in the marketplace.
