Global State of Information Security Survey (GSISS) 2016 found that board involvement globally dropped to 45 percent of organizations. Only 18 percent of small companies say their security leaders advise their board on security, 33 percent of large organizations do. Only one in four CISOs or CSOs make a security presentation to their board annually, while 30 percent of respondents in that survey said that their security executives make quarterly security presentations. Board oversight means that executives will see cybersecurity as one of the long-term strategic objectives they need to balance, and place value on it accordingly.”]
