To begin, Theresa, could you share a bit about your role as Chief Evangelist and how it relates to the evolving landscape of cybersecurity in the C-suite?

As Chief Evangelist, I lead the effort to advance cybersecurity through the vendor-neutral research, writing, and creation of various thought leadership publications, namely the LevelBlue Futures Report. In 2024, the Futures Report examined cyber resilience and how innovation impacted risk. This research is essential for executives and security professionals, enabling them to better understand the evolving threat landscape and develop more resilient cybersecurity strategies. In this position, I serve as a trusted advisor to some of the world’s most innovative and influential companies and executives, consistently driving the cybersecurity industry forward.

What are the most compelling reasons for prioritizing cyber awareness and effective communication at the executive level?

Resilience is the nucleus of an organization’s survival. It’s imperative to view cyber resilience as a strategic business priority that requires a holistic approach from the organization. When silos across the C-suite are broken down and barriers to cyber resilience are identified, leaders can better collaborate to transform strategy and allocate resources that align cybersecurity initiatives with overarching business objectives.

For example, improved alignment within the C-Suite can provide clearer guidance on cybersecurity priorities by fostering a unified approach to risk management and operational resilience. When CIOs, CTOs, and CISOs collaborate closely, they can prioritize investments in cybersecurity technologies that mitigate risks effectively while supporting business objectives. This alignment reduces ambiguity and ensures that resources are allocated strategically, alleviating some of the pressure on CISOs to make unilateral decisions.

The 2024 LevelBlue Executive Accelerator indicates that 73% of CISOs feel pressured regarding AI’s role in cybersecurity. Can you elaborate on this concern and its implications for organizational resilience?

CISOs are uniquely tasked with operationalizing cybersecurity measures and balancing the integration of AI technologies while safeguarding against evolving threats. Unlike CIOs and CTOs, who focus on broader strategic planning and technological innovation, CISOs are immediately responsible for implementing robust security protocols. This operational burden places them at the forefront of assessing how AI implementations could introduce vulnerabilities or disrupt existing security frameworks.

CISOs are particularly concerned about the operational challenges and resource constraints that accompany AI integration into cybersecurity frameworks. They must navigate trade-offs between leveraging AI’s capabilities, such as its ability to analyze large volumes of data for potential threats, or its speed in identifying and responding to security incidents, while ensuring it does not inadvertently expose the organization to new vulnerabilities or regulatory compliance risks.
