Security leaders, by closely partnering with CFOs, can ensure cybersecurity risks are considered and investments to mitigate such risks are prioritized.

However, there has been growing involvement and partnerships in both directions, with CSOs now successfully proving security’s value to the enterprise and CFOs championing security and cybersecurity initiatives to better mitigate enterprise risks.
