Before we can dive into the CISO Value Distillery, which is a method of engaging us, CISOs positively, and providing value through the whole process, there are important concepts about our jobs, and the entire industry formerly known as cybersecurity, that Chief Information Security Officers need you to know.
This is what the Essentials Series is for and just like the rest of the courses at the Audience 1st Startup Academy, it's designed to immediately provide you the same thing CISOs need YOU to be able to get them.
And that is value.
Course Overview
In the Essentials Course, we will start with the definition of risk, what primary business goals are threatened by risks, what is the biggest risk to business, and different ways of dealing with risks. Next, we'll dive into the history of the industry-formerly-known-as-cybersecurity and cover major constraints in CISO jobs. Finally, we'll summarize different CISO types and what value is for each one.
