Synopsis

In many boardrooms and leadership teams, digital security is a key topic on the ­agenda. And, considering the rapid digital transformation of our society, its impor-
tance will only increase in the years ahead. Boards and leadership teams are aware of the challenges we face, but often seek guidance that is both robust and relevant.
The authors ofthis book have responded to that call by writing a must-read reference guide that connects theories and models to practical instruments and approaches in the field of digital security.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Yuri Bobbert is a scientific practitioner. He is a Chief Information Security Officer at ON2IT and Academic Director / Professor at Antwerp Management School (AMS). With concrete advice and a down-to-earth approach, he has advised more than 300 companies, including NN Group and UWV as Head of Digital Security. Yuri has a double PhD from both the University of Antwerp and Radboud University in the Netherlands. His dissertation about “Maturing Business Information Security (MBIS),” describes the managerial side of security and the technology used to meas- ure and administrate it. His first book was published in 2010; the second in 2014, describing 25 companies that have applied his methods. In 2018 he published two books: “Critical success fac- tors for effective business information security” and “Cybersecurity in 60 minutes” for Boards and supervisory bodies. Mark Butterhoff has gained experience over the last 20 years in various roles. He has a long history in one of the Big Four accounting firms, where he worked in infor- mation security, IT auditing, and management consulting. After that he worked for several years as program manager and interim manager restructuring and changing mainly IT organizations as well as a post as Interim Chief Information Security Officer. So far he has helped over 80 companies in 17 countries. Alongside his work he also teaches at the TIAS Business School in the Netherlands. Mark has completed studies in various topics, including Business Informatics and IT Auditing. In 2016 he published a book entitled “Discover the IT Cherry,” which describes how to become the most valued IT organization by building trust and creating experiences instead of using the latest technology or implementing new processes. His experienc- es from work and the insights gained from writing this book were also the basis for writing this book. Solid technology and processes are massively important in cyber- security; however, they won’t help you win the war against this silent enemy. Just as in sports, the army, aviation, healthcare, etc., it’s mostly leadership and the people in your organization that make the difference.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

In our recent past, the “burning platform” was often technology. We needed to make the leap from mainframes to client-servers to PCs to mobile, and beyond. Today, the burning platform has moved to leadership. We are building a new business platform that requires genuine lead- ership, a platform that will empower and enable us to lead information availability and the underlying technology. A style of leadership that can turn data into a real asset with honesty, integrity, openness, and transparency. We’ll need to unlearn some of the traits that brought us to the current CIO role and adopt new ways of looking at the world and the future. The authors did justice to the statement above, they did jettison some of the old school traits, and in their skilled writers’ wake they leave us with a dozen time-tested solutions to assist us taking on the Digital Security responsibility, and own it, lead it, control it, handle it, master it, govern it, understand it, fund it, describe it, delete it, ignore it, outsource it, but still run it, live it and love it to CONQUER IT!
