In this article Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) face the daunting task of balancing technical cybersecurity risks with the financial realities of their organization. One critical component in this balancing act is the use of vulnerability scoring systems, in particular, the CVSS score. This article provides a detailed guide on how to translate CVSS scores into tangible financial impact estimates using proven methods of risk quantification.

As CISOs, you’ve invested heavily in desktop security, built out Zero Trust architectures, and hardened your perimeter. But there’s a critical gap many are still leaving exposed: mobile devices and the human behind the screen. In a world where your workforce runs on smartphones, overlooking mobile security is no longer an option.

What does “secure by default” really mean—and is it enough? In this episode of CyberArk’s Security Matters, host David Puner sits down with Scott Barronton, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Diebold Nixdorf, to explore the often-overlooked risks of cloud default settings and how assumptions can lead to vulnerabilities.

In today’s volatile cyber landscape, having a cyber incident response playbook is not a luxury— it’s a necessity. For CISOs and IT leaders across industries like healthcare, BFSI, public sector, and telecommunications, a well-crafted playbook is the backbone of organizational resilience. It empowers teams to respond effectively, mitigate damage, and recover swiftly from breaches.

In this article Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) face a dual imperative in the digital landscape of today: safeguarding their organizations from an ever-evolving threat landscape while managing escalating security costs. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers transformative potential in meeting these challenges by automating threat detection, streamlining compliance, and optimizing resource allocation.

In this article In 2025, the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and compliance leadership has become even more critical in ensuring that risk assessments are not only comprehensive but also agile and adaptive. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in cybersecurity, enabling risk assessments to be automated, more accurate, and proactive.

Welcome to the DevOps multiverse. Here, code is currency, while platforms like GitHub, Jira, and Confluence power critical infrastructure. Here, even the smallest misstep can trigger a chain reaction measured in gigabytes of leaked data, thousands of compromised credentials, and millions of dollars in financial losses, not to mention reputational damage. These risks aren’t theoretical.
