When leaders have greater security awareness and understanding of cybersecurity risks, fully informed decisions can be made to apply mitigations and controls.
Organizations must make closing the cybersecurity a focus area that is woven in their strategy plans. Alignment from the top down will drive progress in the right direction.
A culture of cybersecurity is when there is top down support for cybersecurity, it is ingrained in and fully integrated all aspects of the mission, and all employees have a mindset of security in everything they do.
